Fire-Rated Windows in Horley: 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.

  • Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
  • Fixed fire-rated windows
  • External-grade fire glass in sealed units
  • Fire-stopping to the wall opening

Key checks for Horley projects

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.

Ventilation

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

Matching appearance

Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.

Fire glazing rules in England

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
