How we work in Weymouth
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Evidence you can file
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Weymouth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Before you order steel fire-rated screens: what matters
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.
Lead times
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
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.
Areas we cover around Weymouth
