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.
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.
Whether the building is in central Uxbridge or the wider UB8, UB10, SL0, UB9, UB11, HA4 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Ruislip, Hayes, Gerrards Cross. We cover Uxbridge as part of our Greater London coverage.
We can phase work in Uxbridge around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
If an existing frame in a Uxbridge building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Steel fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Uxbridge, including blocks of flats and student accommodation.
Most steel fire screens can be powder-coated to a wide range of RAL colours, with black and anthracite the most requested.
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.
Survey timing in Uxbridge 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.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
