Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Greenford: what's included

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.

  • Internal and external-grade build-ups
  • Matched glazing systems and seals
  • Handling and installation of heavy panes
  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units

What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Greenford

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.

Optical quality

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

Exterior positions

Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.

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.
