Timber Fire-Rated Screens in Stirling: what's included

Timber fire-rated screens are glazed partitions made with hardwood frames, glazing beads and intumescent seals that have been tested together to resist fire. They are common in schools, healthcare, heritage buildings and residential blocks where a warmer finish is wanted.

  • Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities
  • Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system
  • Painted, stained or lacquered finishes
  • Fire-stopping to the structure

What to check before ordering timber fire-rated screens in Stirling

Moisture and movement

Timber frames need dry conditions on site and acclimatisation before glazing to avoid movement around the glass.

Insulating glass weight

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

Species and density count

Timber screens are tested with specific species and minimum densities. Softwood substitutions or thinner sections can fall outside the evidence.

Our Forth Valley coverage takes in Stirling (FK8, FK9, FK7) and the neighbouring towns of Alloa, Falkirk, Cumbernauld. Stirling is the main town we cover in Forth Valley.

Scotland regulations that shape the job

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Stirling?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
