Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Lincoln: 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.

  • 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 Lincoln quote includes

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Lincoln budgets are not open-ended.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Lincoln building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Rated systems, not just rated glass

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

What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Lincoln

How it works

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

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.

Storage on site

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