Fire-Rated Curtain Walling
Facade glazing tested for fire where boundaries or compartments demand it.
Learn more →If a building in Spalding 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.

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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Spalding identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Spalding around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
Replacing a non-rated window near a boundary is often triggered by an extension or change of use. We survey the opening before quoting.
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
Our Lincolnshire coverage takes in Spalding (PE11) and the neighbouring towns of Boston, Peterborough, Wisbech. Spalding is about 55 km from Lincoln, the largest town in our Lincolnshire coverage.
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.
Sector guides below cover retail and leisure units, blocks of flats and other buildings in Spalding.
No. The frame, glazing system and fixings also need to be part of a tested window.
Frames can be slightly heavier, but most can be finished to match surrounding windows.
Yes. We survey and install in Spalding and across Lincolnshire, including the PE11 district and nearby Boston.
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.
