Insulated Fire Glass (EI) in East Grinstead: 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
  • EI 30, EI 60, EI 90 and EI 120 glass
  • Impact-classified insulating glass
  • Internal and external-grade build-ups

What you can expect in East Grinstead

Fixed written quotes

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

England rules applied

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

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

What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in East Grinstead

Storage on site

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

Exterior positions

Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.

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.

Which rules apply to insulated fire glass in East Grinstead?

England Which rules apply?

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.

Is EI glass clear?

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

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.

Do you carry out insulated fire glass in East Grinstead?

Yes. We survey and install in East Grinstead and across West Sussex, including the RH19 district and nearby Horley.

How quickly can you survey in East Grinstead?

Survey timing in East Grinstead 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.
