What our fire-rated glazed screens service includes in Perth

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.

  • Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems
  • Handover evidence pack
  • Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
  • Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings

Before you order fire-rated glazed screens: what matters

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.

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.

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.

Where we work around Perth

We cover Perth and the surrounding postcode districts, including PH1. Nearby towns we also serve include Glenrothes, Dundee, Kirkcaldy. Perth lies roughly 29 km from Dundee, within our Tayside coverage.

What every Perth quote includes

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Perth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Perth building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Scotland rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazed screens in Perth?

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

Building types we cover in Perth

Fire-rated glazed screens applies to many building types in Perth, including industrial units and retail and leisure units.

Questions about fire-rated glazed screens in Perth

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 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.

Can you price fire-rated glazed screens in Perth from photos?

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.

How quickly can you survey in Perth?

Survey timing in Perth 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.
