What our fire-rated windows service includes in Stafford
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
- Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
- Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
- Fixed fire-rated windows
What you can expect in Stafford

If an existing frame in a Stafford building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Stafford identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Before you order fire-rated windows: what matters
Ventilation
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
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.
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.

Whether the building is in central Stafford or the wider ST16, ST18 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Rugeley, Cannock, Burntwood. Stafford lies roughly 23 km from Stoke-on-Trent, within our Staffordshire coverage.
