Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in Redhill: 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.

  • Matched glazing systems and seals
  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Insulating glass in sealed double-glazed units
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups

What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Redhill

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.

The temperature rule

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.

Redhill coverage and nearby towns

Our Surrey coverage takes in Redhill (RH1, RH2) and the neighbouring towns of Reigate, Horley, Caterham. Woking, around 28 km from Redhill, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

FAQs for Redhill

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.

What does EI 60 mean?

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.

How quickly can you survey in Redhill?

Survey timing in Redhill 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 Redhill 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.
