Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.

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.
Our Hertfordshire coverage takes in Hoddesdon (EN11, EN10, SG13, CM19) and the neighbouring towns of Hertford, Cheshunt, Waltham Abbey. Hoddesdon is about 29 km from Watford, the largest town in our Hertfordshire coverage.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
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.
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.
If an existing frame in a Hoddesdon building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Hoddesdon identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Yes. Single, double and in some systems sliding doors can be built into the screen, provided the combination is covered by the evidence.
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.
