What our timber fire-rated screens service includes in Egham

  • Fire-stopping to the structure
  • Hardwood frames to tested sections and densities

Before you order timber fire-rated screens: what matters

Moisture and movement

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

Insulating glass weight

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

Species and density count

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