Fire-Rated Curtain Walling
Facade glazing tested for fire where boundaries or compartments demand it.
Learn more →For Fulham buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated windows wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Windows used for escape from rooms have their own size and opening rules, and should not be confused with fire-resisting windows.
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
The closer a wall is to a boundary, the less unprotected area it can have. Fixed windows that meet the wall's full fire-resistance requirement, including insulation where required, are not counted as unprotected area; integrity-only glazing generally still is.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Fulham, including the SW6, SW5, W6, W14, SW10, W8 districts, and in nearby Chelsea, Putney, Battersea. Fulham is one of the Greater London districts we cover.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Fulham budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Fulham building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Sector guides below cover public buildings, offices and other buildings in Fulham.
Frames can be slightly heavier, but most can be finished to match surrounding windows.
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.
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.
Building work in Fulham follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
