What to check before ordering timber fire-rated screens in Wallington
Moisture and movement
Timber frames need dry conditions on site and acclimatisation before glazing to avoid movement around the glass.
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.
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.
