What our fire-rated glazed screens service includes in Middlesbrough
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.
- Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification
- Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
- Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems
- Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
How we work in Middlesbrough
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Middlesbrough identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Middlesbrough building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Work around occupied buildings
We can phase work in Middlesbrough around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
Movement and deflection
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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazed screens in Middlesbrough?
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.
Building types we cover in Middlesbrough
Fire-rated glazed screens applies to many building types in Middlesbrough, including blocks of flats and care homes.
FAQs for Middlesbrough
Can you add a screen to an occupied building?
Yes. We plan dust control, out-of-hours working and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
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 you work on occupied buildings in Middlesbrough?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Middlesbrough?
Survey timing in Middlesbrough 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.
