What our timber fire-rated screens service includes in Dagenham

  • Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities
  • Over-panels, side panels and borrowed lights
  • Painted, stained or lacquered finishes

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

Finishing

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

Species and density count

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

Moisture and movement

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

Which rules apply to timber fire-rated screens in Dagenham?

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
