Fire-Rated Glazed Screens across Rayleigh

For Rayleigh buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated glazed screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

What's involved with fire-rated glazed screens in Rayleigh

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
  • Handover evidence pack
  • Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems
  • Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details

What every Rayleigh quote includes

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Rayleigh around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Fixed written quotes

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

Before you order fire-rated glazed screens: what matters

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.

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.

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.

Rayleigh coverage and nearby towns

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Rayleigh, including the SS6, SS7, SS5, SS11 districts, and in nearby South Benfleet, Wickford, Pitsea. Rayleigh lies roughly 9 km from Southend-on-Sea, within our Essex coverage.

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.

Sectors we cover in Rayleigh

Questions about fire-rated glazed screens in Rayleigh

How long does installation take?

Small screens are often fitted in a day once manufactured. Larger runs depend on site access and phasing; we agree a programme with you when we quote.

Can you add a screen to an occupied building?

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

Do you work on occupied buildings in Rayleigh?

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

Can you price fire-rated glazed screens in Rayleigh 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.
