Fire-Resistant Glass
Integrity and insulating fire glass supplied and fitted into tested frames.
Learn more →We provide integrity fire glass in Epsom and across Surrey, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.

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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can phase work in Epsom around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Epsom identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
EW glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
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.
Coverage around Epsom includes the KT17, KT19, KT21, KT9, SM3, SM7 districts and nearby Ewell, Banstead, Sutton. Epsom lies roughly 20 km from Woking, within our Surrey coverage.
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.
We can survey and quote for retail and leisure units, public buildings and other building types in Epsom.
Yes, considerably, and it is thinner and lighter.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
Yes. We survey and install in Epsom and across Surrey, including the KT17 district and nearby Ewell.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
