Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Romford: 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.

  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units
  • Matched glazing systems and seals
  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups

Key checks for Romford projects

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.

Storage on site

Insulating fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.

England Which rules apply?

Insulated Fire Glass (EI): Romford questions

Is EI glass clear?

Yes, in normal conditions. It turns opaque only when heated in a fire.

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.

How quickly can you survey in Romford?

Survey timing in Romford depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.

Can you price insulated fire glass in Romford 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.
