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

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.
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.
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
Whether the building is in central Coalville or the wider LE67 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Loughborough, Swadlincote, Leicester. Leicester, around 19 km from Coalville, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
If an existing frame in a Coalville building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Coalville identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Coalville budgets are not open-ended.
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.
Steel fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Coalville, including blocks of flats and hotels.
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.
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 Coalville and across Leicestershire, including the LE67 district and nearby Loughborough.
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.
