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.
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.
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Wishaw, including the ML2, ML1 districts, and in nearby Motherwell, Hamilton, Airdrie. Wishaw lies roughly 16 km from East Kilbride, within our Lanarkshire coverage.
We can phase work in Wishaw around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Steel fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Wishaw, including hotels and retail and leisure units.
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.
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.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
