What our fire-rated glazed screens service includes in Wallington

A fire-rated glazed screen is an internal wall made largely of glass that forms part of a fire-resisting construction, such as a corridor wall, a stair enclosure or a compartment wall. It lets daylight and sightlines through while holding back fire for the period the fire strategy requires.

  • Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems
  • Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
  • Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification
  • Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details

Where we work around Wallington

Before you order fire-rated glazed screens: what matters

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.

Building control

New screens, and changes to existing fire-resisting walls, are normally building work. We provide the product evidence your building control body or approved inspector will ask for.

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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazed screens in Wallington?

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.
