Steel Fire-Rated Screens in Exeter: 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.

  • Single, double and sliding door options within the system
  • Gridded industrial-style layouts
  • Integrity and insulating glass up to EI 120 where the system allows
  • Powder-coated RAL finishes

How we work in Exeter

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Exeter 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 Exeter budgets are not open-ended.

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Key checks for Exeter projects

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.

Weight and fixing

Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.

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.

Where we work around Exeter

Our Devon coverage takes in Exeter (EX2, EX4, EX1) and the neighbouring towns of Exmouth, Tiverton, Newton Abbot. Plymouth, around 59 km from Exeter, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
