What our fire-rated windows service includes in Perth
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
- Fire-stopping to the wall opening
- External-grade fire glass in sealed units
- Boundary-wall and escape-route windows

What to check before ordering fire-rated windows in Perth
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.
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.
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.
Scotland regulations that shape the job
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
How we work in Perth
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Perth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Perth budgets are not open-ended.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Perth building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Fire-Rated Windows: Perth questions
Is fire-rated glass in a standard window enough?
No. The frame, glazing system and fixings also need to be part of a tested window.
Can fire-rated windows open?
Some can, if the opening version has been tested. Fixed fire-rated windows are more common.
Can you price fire-rated windows in Perth from photos?
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.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Perth?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
