What's involved with fire-rated glazed screens in New Milton

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.

  • Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
  • Handover evidence pack
  • Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification
  • Integrated fire doors and glazed doorsets

What to check before ordering fire-rated glazed screens in New Milton

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.

Doors inside a screen

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.

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.

Questions about fire-rated glazed screens in New Milton

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.

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.

Yes. We survey and install in New Milton and across Hampshire, including the BH25 district and nearby Christchurch.

How quickly can you survey in New Milton?

Survey timing in New Milton 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.
