How we work in Weston-super-Mare

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Weston-super-Mare building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Weston-super-Mare around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

What to check before ordering steel fire-rated screens in Weston-super-Mare

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.

Finishes and 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.

Not every steel look is fire-rated

Decorative steel-look aluminium or slim steel partitions sold for offices are not automatically fire-rated. We only fit systems with test or assessment evidence for the classification you need.

Which rules apply to steel fire-rated screens in Weston-super-Mare?

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.

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.
