Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.

Steel fire-rated screens use steel frame sections to hold fire-resistant glass, and they are the usual choice when a project needs slim sightlines with a high rating, large panes or heavy insulating glass. Steel keeps its strength well in fire and can carry the weight of thick EI glass over long spans.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Chelsea, including the SW10, SW3, SW7, SW1X, SW5, W1M districts, and in nearby Battersea, Fulham, Pimlico. Chelsea sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Battersea.
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
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.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Chelsea budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Chelsea identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can survey and quote for public buildings, retail and leisure units and other building types in Chelsea.
Yes. Single, double and in some systems sliding doors can be built into the screen, provided the combination is covered by the evidence.
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.
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.
Yes. We survey and install in Chelsea and across Greater London, including the SW10 district and nearby Battersea.
