Steel Fire-Rated Screens in Irvine: what's included
We supply and install tested steel screen systems in black, RAL colours and industrial finishes, including the gridded warehouse look, with integrated single and double doors. Each screen is drawn up within its system evidence so the appearance does not come at the cost of the rating.

- Fire-stopping and deflection heads
- Gridded industrial-style layouts
- Tested steel profile systems with slim sightlines
What every Irvine quote includes
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Irvine building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Irvine identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Scotland rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
What to check before ordering steel fire-rated screens in Irvine
Finishes and the rating
Paint and powder coat are normally covered by the evidence, but intumescent strips and seals must not be painted over. We protect them during finishing.
Thermal bridging on external use
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Why choose steel
Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.

Fire glazing rules in Scotland
Scotland Which rules apply?

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.
Sectors we cover in Irvine
Steel fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Irvine, including hotels and retail and leisure units.
Steel Fire-Rated Screens: Irvine questions
Can steel fire screens include doors?
Yes. Single, double and in some systems sliding doors can be built into the screen, provided the combination is covered by the evidence.
Are steel screens more expensive than aluminium?
Often slightly, especially at higher ratings, but steel can be the more economical route when panes are large or the rating is EI 60 and above.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Irvine?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Can you price steel fire-rated screens in Irvine 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.
