Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW) in Garston: 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.
- Modified toughened integrity glass
- Glass-ceramic and borosilicate integrity glass
- EW laminated glass with radiation control
- Matched beads and seals
What to check before ordering integrity fire glass in Garston
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.
Cost advantage
Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
Not insulating
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
Fire glazing rules in England
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.

Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW): Garston questions
Is integrity glass cheaper?
Yes, considerably, and it is thinner and lighter.
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 Garston?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Can you price integrity fire glass in Garston from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
