What our steel fire-rated screens service includes in Frome

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.

  • Gridded industrial-style layouts
  • Powder-coated RAL finishes
  • Single, double and sliding door options within the system
  • Integrity and insulating glass up to EI 120 where the system allows

What to check before ordering steel fire-rated screens in Frome

Thermal bridging on external use

Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.

Weight and fixing

Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.

Why choose steel

Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

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.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
