Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW) in Lytham St Annes: what's included

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.

  • Polished wired glass where still appropriate
  • Matched beads and seals
  • EW laminated glass with radiation control
  • Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass

Key checks for Lytham St Annes projects

Cost advantage

Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.

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.

Not insulating

E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.

England regulations that shape the job

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.

How quickly can you survey in Lytham St Annes?

Survey timing in Lytham St Annes 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.
