Fire-Rated Windows in Sale: what's included
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
- Fixed fire-rated windows
- Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
Before you order fire-rated windows: what matters
Matching appearance
Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.
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.
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.
