What our fire-rated windows service includes in Maldon
Most fire-rated windows are fixed lights, because opening windows need the opening sash, hinges and locks to be tested too. We supply and install fixed and, where tested, opening fire-rated windows in steel, aluminium and timber, matched to the surrounding windows where possible.
- Boundary-wall and escape-route windows
- Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
- Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
Key checks for Maldon projects
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.
Matching appearance
Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.
Which rules apply to fire-rated windows in Maldon?
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.

Questions about fire-rated windows in Maldon
Can fire-rated windows open?
Some can, if the opening version has been tested. Fixed fire-rated windows are more common.
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.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Maldon?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Maldon?
Survey timing in Maldon 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.
