Fire-Rated Curtain Walling
Facade glazing tested for fire where boundaries or compartments demand it.
Learn more →If a building in Yateley needs fire-rated windows, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

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.
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.
An opening sash introduces gaps and hardware that all need testing. Fixed fire-rated windows are simpler and more widely available.
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.
Whether the building is in central Yateley or the wider GU46, GU47, RG45, GU17, RG40 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Sandhurst, Crowthorne, Camberley. Yateley lies roughly 63 km from Southampton, within our Hampshire coverage.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Yateley budgets are not open-ended.
We can phase work in Yateley around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, retail and leisure units and other building types in Yateley.
Some can, if the opening version has been tested. Fixed fire-rated windows are more common.
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.
Building work in Yateley follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
