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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Greenford, including the UB6, W7, UB5, UB1, UB4, W13 districts, and in nearby Northolt, Southall, Brent. Greenford is one of the Greater London districts we cover.
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.
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
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.
Every quote in Greenford identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Greenford building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can survey and quote for schools and colleges, retail and leisure units and other building types in Greenford.
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.
Only products approved for external use, usually in a sealed unit with UV protection.
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.
Building work in Greenford follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
