Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.

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.
EW glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Egham, including the TW20, GU25, TW18, TW19 districts, and in nearby Staines-upon-Thames, Ashford, Windsor. Egham is about 13 km from Woking, the largest town in our Surrey coverage.
We can phase work in Egham around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Egham identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
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.
We can survey and quote for care homes, schools and colleges and other building types in Egham.
Glass that stops flames and hot gases for the rated time but lets heat through. It is classified E.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
