What's involved with insulated fire glass in Haverhill

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.

What you can expect in Haverhill

Rated systems, not just rated glass

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

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Honest about unknowns

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

What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Haverhill

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.

How it works

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

Storage on site

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