Fire-Rated Glazed Screens in Bridlington: what's included

We design, supply and install fire-rated screens in steel, aluminium, timber and frameless formats, working from the rating and positions on your fire strategy. Every screen is built within the limits of its test or assessment evidence: pane sizes, transom and mullion spacing, glass type and the way it is fixed to the surrounding structure.

  • Integrated fire doors and glazed doorsets
  • Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
  • Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
  • Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems

Before you order fire-rated glazed screens: what matters

Acoustic and security needs

Fire glass can be combined with acoustic or security performance in many systems. We confirm the combined build-up is covered before pricing it.

Doors inside a screen

A door in a glazed screen has to be tested in that configuration or covered by a doorset certificate and an assessment for the screen. We specify the door and screen as one system rather than mixing products.

Integrity-only screens on escape routes

Building guidance limits where integrity-only glazing can sit on protected escape routes, and in some positions restricts it to above a set height from the floor. Insulating screens are not restricted in the same way, so the route plan often decides the glass.

Fire glazing rules in England

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Yes. We plan dust control, out-of-hours working and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

It depends on the system's evidence. Most systems state maximum pane sizes and overall heights; very tall or wide screens may need an assessment from a test body. We confirm the limits during design.
