What our fire-rated glazed screens service includes in Bath
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.
- Integrated fire doors and glazed doorsets
- Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
- Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
- Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification
Key checks for Bath projects
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.
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.
Bath coverage and nearby towns
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Bath, including the BA1, BA2 districts, and in nearby Trowbridge, Kingswood, Mangotsfield. Bath is the largest town in our Somerset coverage.

Fire-Rated Glazed Screens: Bath questions
Can a fire-rated screen be fully glazed?
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.
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 carry out fire-rated glazed screens in Bath?
Yes. We survey and install in Bath and across Somerset, including the BA1 district and nearby Trowbridge.
How quickly can you survey in Bath?
Survey timing in Bath 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.
