Fire-Resistant Glass in Bexley: what's included

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 with radiation control (EW) laminated glass
  • Intumescent glazing seals, tapes and gaskets to the tested specification
  • Glazing beads and fixings to the frame manufacturer's details
  • Integrity (E) glass: modified toughened, glass-ceramic and polished wired types

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Bexley around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Key checks for Bexley projects

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.

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.

Marking and records

Most fire glass is permanently marked with its product and classification. We record the marks, pane sizes and evidence references on handover so whoever is responsible for fire safety can show what is installed.

England regulations that shape the job

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.

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

FAQs for Bexley

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 match glass that is already installed?

Often, yes. We read the marks on the existing panes and check them against the frame evidence. Where the original product is discontinued we look for an alternative covered by the same evidence or a formal assessment.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Bexley?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Do you carry out fire-resistant glass in Bexley?

Yes. We survey and install in Bexley and across Greater London, including the DA15 district and nearby Welling.
