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.
Every quote in Leytonstone identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Leytonstone around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
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.
Timber frames need dry conditions on site and acclimatisation before glazing to avoid movement around the glass.
Paint and stain are fine on the timber, but intumescent seals must stay clear of paint. We mask them during finishing.
We cover Leytonstone and the surrounding postcode districts, including E11, E10, E7, E20, E18, E17. Nearby towns we also serve include Walthamstow, Stratford, Ilford. We cover Leytonstone as part of our Greater London coverage.
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.
We can survey and quote for offices, public buildings and other building types in Leytonstone.
Dense hardwoods are typical; the exact species depends on the tested specification. We confirm species and density on the drawings.
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.
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.
