What's involved with fire-rated glazed screens in Hazel Grove

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.

How we work in Hazel Grove

Honest about unknowns

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

Fixed written quotes

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

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Before you order fire-rated glazed screens: what matters

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.

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.

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.

FAQs for Hazel Grove

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.

How quickly can you survey in Hazel Grove?

Survey timing in Hazel Grove depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.

Do you carry out fire-rated glazed screens in Hazel Grove?

Yes. We survey and install in Hazel Grove and across Greater Manchester, including the SK7 district and nearby Stockport.
