Timber Fire-Rated Screens in Wood Green: what's included

The rating depends on the timber species and density, frame sections, bead profiles, fixings and the glazing seals used in the test. We build timber screens to a tested specification, or to a formal assessment, and finish them without compromising the intumescent details.

  • Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system
  • Over-panels, side panels and borrowed lights
  • Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities
  • Fire-rated timber doorsets set into screens

Key checks for Wood Green projects

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.

Moisture and movement

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

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.
