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.
If an existing frame in a Fleet building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Fleet identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Fleet around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
Fire glass can be combined with acoustic or security performance in many systems. We confirm the combined build-up is covered before pricing it.
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.

Sector guides below cover retail and leisure units, care homes and other buildings in Fleet.
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.
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.
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.
