What our timber fire-rated screens service includes in Grimsby

  • Over-panels, side panels and borrowed lights
  • Fire-rated timber doorsets set into screens
  • Painted, stained or lacquered finishes
  • Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system

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

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.

Insulating glass weight

Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.
