What our timber fire-rated screens service includes in Holloway

- Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities
- Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system
- Over-panels, side panels and borrowed lights
- Fire-rated timber doorsets set into screens
Key checks for Holloway projects
Species and density count
Timber screens are tested with specific species and minimum densities. Softwood substitutions or thinner sections can fall outside the evidence.
Beads are part of the rating
Bead profile, height and fixing type and spacing are all taken from the test. Short-cutting the fixings is a common reason screens fail inspection.
Insulating glass weight
Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.
England regulations that shape the job
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.

Questions about timber fire-rated screens in Holloway
Can timber screens be painted?
Yes. The timber can be painted, stained or lacquered. Intumescent seals are kept clear of paint.
Can you upgrade an old timber screen?
Sometimes. If the frame can be shown to be suitable, we can replace non-rated glass and add the correct seals and beads. Where it cannot, replacement is the honest answer.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Holloway?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Do you carry out timber fire-rated screens in Holloway?
Yes. We survey and install in Holloway and across Greater London, including the N7 district and nearby Highbury.
