Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Walsall buildings, we supply, replace and check steel fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Whether the building is in central Walsall or the wider WS1, WS2, WS5, WS4, WV13, WS10 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Bloxwich, Wednesbury, Aldridge. Birmingham, around 13 km from Walsall, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Where steel glazing forms an external wall, thermal performance and condensation need designing in as well as the fire rating.
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
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.
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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can phase work in Walsall around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Walsall budgets are not open-ended.
We can survey and quote for schools and colleges, retail and leisure units and other building types in Walsall.
Most steel fire screens can be powder-coated to a wide range of RAL colours, with black and anthracite the most requested.
Some steel systems with that look are tested for fire, many decorative ones are not. Ask for the classification and test evidence; we only quote tested systems for fire-rated positions.
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.
