Fire-Rated Glazed Screens in Hastings: 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.

  • Handover evidence pack
  • Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
  • Integrated fire doors and glazed doorsets
  • Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification

How we work in Hastings

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Hastings building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Hastings identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Hastings budgets are not open-ended.

What to check before ordering fire-rated glazed screens in Hastings

Movement and deflection

Long screens under slabs need deflection heads so floor movement does not crack the glass or open gaps. The head detail has to come from the same evidence as the rest of the screen.

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.

What the screen is fixed to matters

Test evidence covers the screen's connection to specific supporting constructions, such as masonry, concrete or a tested partition. Fixing into a lightweight wall that is not covered can undermine the rating, so we check the substrate first.

Hastings coverage and nearby towns

Whether the building is in central Hastings or the wider TN34, TN38, TN37, TN35 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Bexhill-on-Sea, Hailsham, Eastbourne. Brighton, around 51 km from Hastings, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

England regulations that shape the job

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.

FAQs for Hastings

How large can a fire-rated glazed screen be?

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.

Do fire-rated screens need maintenance?

They need periodic checks for damaged glass, missing beads, failed seals and unauthorised changes such as new cable holes. We can carry out these checks as part of a survey.

Can you price fire-rated glazed screens in Hastings from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.

Do you carry out fire-rated glazed screens in Hastings?

Yes. We survey and install in Hastings and across East Sussex, including the TN34 district and nearby Bexhill-on-Sea.
