Steel Fire-Rated Screens in Greenwich: 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.

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

Key checks for Greenwich 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.

Not every steel look is fire-rated

Decorative steel-look aluminium or slim steel partitions sold for offices are not automatically fire-rated. We only fit systems with test or assessment evidence for the classification you need.

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.

Areas we cover around Greenwich

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Greenwich, including the SE10, SE8, SE14, SE13, SE3, SE4 districts, and in nearby Blackheath, Canary Wharf, Catford. Greenwich is one of the Greater London districts we cover.

How we work in Greenwich

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Greenwich building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Greenwich around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Building types we cover in Greenwich

We can survey and quote for student accommodation, blocks of flats and other building types in Greenwich.

Questions about steel fire-rated screens in Greenwich

Are steel screens more expensive than aluminium?

Often slightly, especially at higher ratings, but steel can be the more economical route when panes are large or the rating is EI 60 and above.

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 Greenwich?

Survey timing in Greenwich 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 work on occupied buildings in Greenwich?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
