What our integrity fire glass service includes in Hailsham

Integrity fire glass, classified E, stops flames and hot gases passing for the rated time but does not limit the heat coming through. EW glass adds a cap on the heat radiated through the glass. Both are thinner, lighter and cheaper than fully insulated glass.

  • Impact-classified integrity options
  • Modified toughened integrity glass
  • Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass
  • Polished wired glass where still appropriate

What every Hailsham quote includes

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 Hailsham building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Fixed written quotes

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

What to check before ordering integrity fire glass in Hailsham

What EW adds

EW glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.

Limits on escape routes

Building guidance restricts how much integrity-only glass can be used on protected escape routes and where it can sit. Check the route before choosing E glass.

Where integrity glass fits

Integrity-only glass may be acceptable in some fire-resisting partitions, screens and doors, often at high level, within the limits national guidance sets. Compartment walls normally need insulating (EI) glazing.

Is integrity glass allowed on escape routes?

In limited amounts and positions. Building guidance sets the rules; insulating glass is used where those limits are exceeded.

What is the difference between E and EW glass?

EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Hailsham?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Do you carry out integrity fire glass in Hailsham?

Yes. We survey and install in Hailsham and across East Sussex, including the BN27 district and nearby Eastbourne.
