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 Northamptonshire coverage takes in Rushden (NN10, NN9) and the neighbouring towns of Wellingborough, Kettering, Bedford. Rushden lies roughly 20 km from Northampton, within our Northamptonshire coverage.
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 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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Rushden budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
