What's involved with timber fire-rated screens in Worksop

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

Key checks for Worksop projects

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.

Moisture and movement

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

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.

Yes. The timber can be painted, stained or lacquered. Intumescent seals are kept clear of paint.
