What our fire-rated windows service includes in Stamford

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.

  • Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
  • External-grade fire glass in sealed units
  • Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
  • Fixed fire-rated windows

Where we work around Stamford

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Stamford, including the PE9 districts, and in nearby Peterborough, Corby, Spalding. Lincoln, around 64 km from Stamford, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

Before you order fire-rated windows: what matters

Boundary distance

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.

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.

Why fixed lights are common

An opening sash introduces gaps and hardware that all need testing. Fixed fire-rated windows are simpler and more widely available.
