Key checks for Oxfordshire projects

Fire rating

Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.

Phasing

We can replace wired glass over holidays, weekends or zone by zone to keep the building running.

Frame checks

Old frames may not have evidence for modern fire glass. We assess them and recommend frame replacement where the evidence cannot be established.

What replaces wired glass?

Is Georgian wired glass fire-rated?

It can provide integrity in the right frame, typically for 30 minutes and sometimes longer in tested systems, but it does not insulate, and plain wired glass usually lacks an impact safety classification.

Is wired glass dangerous?

When broken by impact it can cause serious cuts. That is why it is often replaced in doors and low-level positions.
