What our fire-resistant glass service includes in Crowborough

We supply and fit fire-resistant glass into new and existing fire-rated frames, matching the glass type, thickness, beads, seals and fixings to the test or assessment evidence for that frame. The glass on its own does not carry a rating; the combination does, so we start every job by identifying the system you have or need.

  • Integrity (E) glass: modified toughened, glass-ceramic and polished wired types
  • Intumescent glazing seals, tapes and gaskets to the tested specification
  • Impact-classified build-ups for critical locations
  • Integrity with radiation control (EW) laminated glass

Before you order fire-resistant glass: what matters

Impact safety still applies

Glass in doors, side panels and low-level positions has to meet impact safety rules as well as the fire rating. Most modern fire glass carries an impact classification; old wired glass usually does not.

Which classification do you actually need?

The fire strategy or building control drawings set the rating for each element. Integrity-only glass is cheaper and thinner, but its use on escape routes is restricted; insulating glass carries far fewer restrictions because people can pass it safely during a fire.

Can any fire glass go in any fire-rated frame?

No. A frame is only rated with the glass types and pane sizes it was tested or assessed with. We check the frame's evidence before quoting, and if the existing frame is unknown we say so and price the options.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Questions about fire-resistant glass in Crowborough

Do you supply fire glass only?

Our service is supply and installation, because the rating depends on how the glass is fitted. For trade buyers we can quote supply of cut-to-size panes with the matching glazing materials on request.

What is the difference between E, EW and EI fire glass?

E is integrity only: it stops flames and hot gases passing for the rated time. EW adds a limit on radiated heat through the glass. EI adds insulation, keeping the unexposed face below set temperature rises so people can pass it safely. The number after the letters is the time in minutes.

Can you price fire-resistant glass in Crowborough 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 carry out fire-resistant glass in Crowborough?

Yes. We survey and install in Crowborough and across East Sussex, including the TN6 district and nearby Royal Tunbridge Wells.
