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.
We can phase work in Greenock around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Greenock budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Coverage around Greenock includes the PA16, PA15, PA19 districts and nearby Vale of Leven, Clydebank, Paisley. Greenock is about 24 km from Paisley, the largest town in our Renfrewshire and Inverclyde coverage.
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.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
Sector guides below cover retail and leisure units, public buildings and other buildings in Greenock.
Yes. Single, double and in some systems sliding doors can be built into the screen, provided the combination is covered by the evidence.
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.
