What's involved with fire-rated windows in Battersea
Fire-rated windows are windows tested as complete units to resist fire, needed where an external wall must protect a neighbouring property, where a window looks onto a protected stair or escape route, or where two parts of a building face each other at close range.
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
- External-grade fire glass in sealed units
- Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
- Fixed fire-rated windows
What to check before ordering fire-rated windows in Battersea
Retrofits
Replacing a non-rated window near a boundary is often triggered by an extension or change of use. We survey the opening before quoting.
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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated windows in Battersea?
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Questions about fire-rated windows in Battersea
When do I need a fire-rated window?
Usually when a wall is close to a boundary, when a window overlooks a protected escape route, or when part of a building faces another part at close range. Your designer or building control will confirm.
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.
Can you price fire-rated windows in Battersea from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Do you carry out fire-rated windows in Battersea?
Yes. We survey and install in Battersea and across Greater London, including the SW11 district and nearby Chelsea.
