Fire-Rated Windows in Banstead: 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.

  • Fire-stopping to the wall opening
  • Fixed fire-rated windows
  • Matching sightlines to adjacent non-rated windows
  • External-grade fire glass in sealed units

Key checks for Banstead projects

Ventilation

If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.

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.
