What's involved with steel fire-rated screens in Newcastle-under-Lyme

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
  • Integrity and insulating glass up to EI 120 where the system allows
  • Tested steel profile systems with slim sightlines
  • Single, double and sliding door options within the system

Before you order steel fire-rated screens: what matters

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.

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.

Lead times

Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.

Which rules apply to steel fire-rated screens in Newcastle-under-Lyme?

England Which rules apply?
