Fire-Rated Windows in Burgess Hill: 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
- Boundary-wall and escape-route windows
- Fixed fire-rated windows
- Tested opening fire-rated windows where available
How we work in Burgess Hill

Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Burgess Hill budgets are not open-ended.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Burgess Hill identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Before you order fire-rated windows: what matters
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.
Boundary distance
The closer a wall is to a boundary, the less unprotected area it can have. Fixed windows that meet the wall's full fire-resistance requirement, including insulation where required, are not counted as unprotected area; integrity-only glazing generally still is.

Questions about fire-rated windows in Burgess Hill
When do I need a fire-rated window?
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.
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.
Which rules apply to fire-rated glazing in Burgess Hill?
Building work in Burgess Hill follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Burgess Hill?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
