What's involved with steel fire-rated screens in Willesden

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.

  • Fire-stopping and deflection heads
  • Powder-coated RAL finishes
  • Integrity and insulating glass up to EI 120 where the system allows
  • Single, double and sliding door options within the system

Key checks for Willesden projects

Weight and fixing

Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.

Lead times

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

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.
