Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →From the RM17 district outwards, we arrange integrity fire glass for buildings across Grays, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.
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.
If an existing frame in a Grays building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Grays budgets are not open-ended.
We can phase work in Grays around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
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.
