Steel Fire-Rated Screens in Falkirk: 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
  • Tested steel profile systems with slim sightlines
  • Fire-stopping and deflection heads

Key checks for Falkirk projects

Lead times

Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.

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.

Falkirk coverage and nearby towns

We cover Falkirk and the surrounding postcode districts, including FK1, FK2, FK5, FK3. Nearby towns we also serve include Alloa, Cumbernauld, Bathgate. Falkirk lies roughly 16 km from Stirling, within our Forth Valley coverage.

How we work in Falkirk

Rated systems, not just rated glass

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

Evidence you can file

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

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Falkirk budgets are not open-ended.

Fire glazing rules in Scotland

Scotland Which rules apply?

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.

Building types we cover in Falkirk

We can survey and quote for public buildings, care homes and other building types in Falkirk.

Questions about steel fire-rated screens in Falkirk

What colours are available?

Most steel fire screens can be powder-coated to a wide range of RAL colours, with black and anthracite the most requested.

Are Crittall-style screens fire-rated?

Some steel systems with that look are tested for fire, many decorative ones are not. Ask for the classification and test evidence; we only quote tested systems for fire-rated positions.

How quickly can you survey in Falkirk?

Survey timing in Falkirk depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.

Do you carry out steel fire-rated screens in Falkirk?

Yes. We survey and install in Falkirk and across Forth Valley, including the FK1 district and nearby Alloa.
