Fire-Rated Windows in Coleraine: what's included

- External-grade fire glass in sealed units
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
- Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
- Fixed fire-rated windows
How we work in Coleraine
Work around occupied buildings
We can phase work in Coleraine around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Northern Ireland rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Northern Ireland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Coleraine identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Key checks for Coleraine projects
Escape windows are different
Windows used for escape from rooms have their own size and opening rules, and should not be confused with fire-resisting windows.
Ventilation
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
Why fixed lights are common
An opening sash introduces gaps and hardware that all need testing. Fixed fire-rated windows are simpler and more widely available.

Northern Ireland regulations that shape the job
Northern Ireland Which rules apply?
In Northern Ireland, building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, with fire safety guidance in Technical Booklet E, approved by the district council's building control.
Once in use, the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing.
Technical Booklet E sets its own provisions for glazing on escape routes, so designs are checked against the Northern Ireland guidance rather than English documents.

Questions about fire-rated windows in Coleraine
Do fire-rated windows look different?
Frames can be slightly heavier, but most can be finished to match surrounding windows.
Is fire-rated glass in a standard window enough?
No. The frame, glazing system and fixings also need to be part of a tested window.

Survey timing in Coleraine depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Do you carry out fire-rated windows in Coleraine?
Yes. We survey and install in Coleraine and across County Londonderry, including the BT51 district and nearby Ballymena.
