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.
Rated windows can usually be finished to match the rest of the elevation.
Windows used for escape from rooms have their own size and opening rules, and should not be confused with fire-resisting windows.
If a fire-rated window cannot open, ventilation may need another route. We coordinate with the designer.
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.
We cover Leatherhead and the surrounding postcode districts, including KT22, KT21, KT23, KT18. Nearby towns we also serve include Epsom, Ewell, Esher. Woking, around 16 km from Leatherhead, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

Usually when a wall is close to a boundary, when a window overlooks a protected escape route, or when part of a building faces another part at close range. Your designer or building control will confirm.
Frames can be slightly heavier, but most can be finished to match surrounding windows.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
