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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Hounslow around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Hounslow identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.
Windows used for escape from rooms have their own size and opening rules, and should not be confused with fire-resisting windows.
We cover Hounslow and the surrounding postcode districts, including TW3, TW4, TW7, TW5, UB2, TW1. Nearby towns we also serve include Isleworth, Heston, Richmond. Hounslow sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Isleworth.
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.
We can survey and quote for hotels, offices and other building types in Hounslow.

Frames can be slightly heavier, but most can be finished to match surrounding windows.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
