Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Archway: what's included
Insulated fire glass, classified EI, is glazing that maintains integrity and keeps the temperature rise on the non-fire side within set limits for the rated time. It is usually made of several glass panes bonded with interlayers that foam into an insulating barrier when heated, or with a clear gel that absorbs heat.
- Handling and installation of heavy panes
- Internal and external-grade build-ups
- Matched glazing systems and seals
- EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Archway
Thickness and weight
Each step up in rating adds layers, so EI 120 is far thicker and heavier than EI 30. The frame has to be designed for it.
Exterior positions
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Optical quality
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
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.
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.

Insulated Fire Glass (EI): Archway questions
Does EI glass need replacing after a fire?
Yes. Once the interlayers have reacted, the glass has done its job and must be replaced.
What does EI 60 mean?
The glazing system kept fire on one side (integrity) and limited the temperature rise on the other side (insulation) for at least 60 minutes in a standard fire test.
Do you carry out insulated fire glass in Archway?
Yes. We survey and install in Archway and across Greater London, including the N19 district and nearby Holloway.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Archway?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
