What our fire-rated glazed screens service includes in Worthing
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.
- Survey and setting-out against the fire strategy drawings
- Integrity or insulating glass to the required classification
- Fire-stopping at head, jambs and sill to the system details
- Steel, aluminium, timber or frameless frame systems
How we work in Worthing
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Worthing building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Worthing budgets are not open-ended.
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Key checks for Worthing projects
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.
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.
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.
