What our timber fire-rated screens service includes in Barnsley

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-stopping to the structure
  • Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities
  • Fire-rated timber doorsets set into screens
  • Painted, stained or lacquered finishes

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

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.

Species and density count

Timber screens are tested with specific species and minimum densities. Softwood substitutions or thinner sections can fall outside the evidence.

Finishing

Paint and stain are fine on the timber, but intumescent seals must stay clear of paint. We mask them during finishing.
