Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →From the PE30 district outwards, we arrange insulated fire glass for buildings across King's Lynn, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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 fire glass should be stored dry, upright and away from direct sun before fitting.
EI testing limits the average temperature rise on the unexposed face to 140°C and any single point to 180°C, which is why people can pass it.
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in King's Lynn, including the PE30 districts, and in nearby Wisbech, March, Spalding. King's Lynn lies roughly 62 km from Norwich, within our Norfolk coverage.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so King's Lynn budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a King's Lynn building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Insulated fire glass applies to many building types in King's Lynn, including public buildings and care homes.
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.
It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
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.
