Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →When a fire strategy, inspection report or building control comment in Hereford calls for glazing tested to resist fire, our steel fire-rated screens service covers survey, supply and installation.
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.
If an existing frame in a Hereford 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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
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.
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.
Coverage around Hereford includes the HR1 districts and nearby Great Malvern, Worcester, Tewkesbury. Hereford is the main town we cover in Herefordshire.
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.

Most steel fire screens can be powder-coated to a wide range of RAL colours, with black and anthracite the most requested.
Yes. We survey and install in Hereford and across Herefordshire, including the HR1 district and nearby Great Malvern.
