What's involved with timber fire-rated screens in Omagh

  • Fire-rated timber doorsets set into screens
  • Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system
  • Painted, stained or lacquered finishes

Key checks for Omagh projects

Finishing

Paint and stain are fine on the timber, but intumescent seals must stay clear of paint. We mask them during finishing.

Insulating glass weight

Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.

Heritage buildings

Timber suits listed and older buildings, and existing screens can sometimes be upgraded with new glass and seals, subject to an assessment of the frame.
