What our insulated fire glass service includes in Canary Wharf

EI glass is the choice where people need to pass close to the glass during a fire, where combustible materials sit near it, or where building guidance would otherwise restrict glazing. We supply and fit EI 30 to EI 120 glass in tested frames, internally and externally.

  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Matched glazing systems and seals
  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups

What every Canary Wharf quote includes

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Canary Wharf identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Work around occupied buildings

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

Before you order insulated fire glass: what matters

Optical quality

Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.

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.

How it works

When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.

Canary Wharf coverage and nearby towns

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Canary Wharf, including the E14, SE16, E3, E1W, E1, SE8 districts, and in nearby Bow, Canning Town, Greenwich. Canary Wharf sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Bow.

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): Canary Wharf questions

Why is insulated fire glass so much more expensive?

It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.

Can EI glass be used outside?

Only products approved for external use, usually in a sealed unit with UV protection.

Can you price insulated fire glass in Canary Wharf 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 Canary Wharf?

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