Steel Fire-Rated Screens
Slim steel frames for long spans, high ratings and heavy glass.
Learn more →From the CF37 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glazed screens for buildings across Pontypridd, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Every quote in Pontypridd identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Pontypridd around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
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.
Fire glass can be combined with acoustic or security performance in many systems. We confirm the combined build-up is covered before pricing it.
Coverage around Pontypridd includes the CF37 districts and nearby Tonypandy, Caerphilly, Rhondda. Rhondda, around 10 km from Pontypridd, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Sector guides below cover blocks of flats, care homes and other buildings in Pontypridd.
Yes. Many screens are glazed from floor to ceiling, subject to the classification needed on that route and any impact safety requirements at low level.
Yes. We plan dust control, out-of-hours working and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Pontypridd is in Wales, where the Welsh Approved Document B applies to building work and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers occupied premises.
Yes. We survey and install in Pontypridd and across Mid Glamorgan, including the CF37 district and nearby Tonypandy.
