Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →For Newry buildings, we supply, replace and check integrity fire glass wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
We supply and fit integrity glass in screens, doors, vision panels and windows where the fire strategy allows it, and upgrade to EW or EI where it does not. Choosing correctly between E, EW and EI is where most of the cost on a project is decided.
Whether the building is in central Newry or the wider BT34 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Portadown, Craigavon, Lisburn. Newry is about 69 km from Bangor, the largest town in our County Down coverage.
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.
Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
In Northern Ireland, building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, with fire safety guidance in Technical Booklet E, approved by the district council's building control.
Once in use, the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing.
Technical Booklet E sets its own provisions for glazing on escape routes, so designs are checked against the Northern Ireland guidance rather than English documents.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Northern Ireland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can phase work in Newry around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Newry identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can survey and quote for care homes, industrial units and other building types in Newry.
Yes, considerably, and it is thinner and lighter.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
Yes. We survey and install in Newry and across County Down, including the BT34 district and nearby Portadown.
Newry is in Northern Ireland, where the Building Regulations (NI) 2012 and Technical Booklet E apply, with the Fire Safety Regulations (NI) 2010 covering occupied premises.
