  • Fire-stopping and deflection heads
  • Tested steel profile systems with slim sightlines
  • Powder-coated RAL finishes

How we work in Newmarket

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Newmarket identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

England rules applied

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

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Key checks for Newmarket projects

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.

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.

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.

Newmarket coverage and nearby towns

Whether the building is in central Newmarket or the wider CB8 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Haverhill, Ely, Cambridge. Newmarket is about 55 km from Ipswich, the largest town in our Suffolk coverage.
