Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Vale of Leven buildings, we supply, replace and check steel fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
Coverage around Vale of Leven includes the G82 districts and nearby Greenock, Clydebank, Renfrew. Vale of Leven lies roughly 17 km from Bearsden, within our Dunbartonshire coverage.

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