Fire-Rated Windows in Daventry: 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.
- External-grade fire glass in sealed units
- Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
- Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
What to check before ordering fire-rated windows in Daventry
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.
Matching appearance
Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.
Ventilation
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
