Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →If a building in Gosport needs steel fire-rated screens, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Our Hampshire coverage takes in Gosport (PO12, PO5, PO1, PO13, PO4, PO2) and the neighbouring towns of Portsmouth, Fareham, Ryde. Gosport is about 23 km from Southampton, the largest town in our Hampshire coverage.
Every quote in Gosport identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Gosport building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
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.
Sector guides below cover care homes, offices and other buildings in Gosport.
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.
Yes. Single, double and in some systems sliding doors can be built into the screen, provided the combination is covered by the evidence.
Survey timing in Gosport 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.
Building work in Gosport follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
