Fire-rated steel screens in Dorset
Fire-rated steel screens in Dorset are made to measure from a free survey and fitted by our installation team, with surveys across Bournemouth, Poole, Dorchester and the surrounding area.
Fitting fire-rated steel screens in Dorset
Dorset's coastal homes and Arts and Crafts houses around Bournemouth and Poole often pair external steel doors with sea-facing extensions.
You get one fixed written price after survey, with the material, glass and finish named on the quote. Because each frame is drawn from your measurements, the fire-rated steel screen fits the opening you have, not a stock size.
We cover Bournemouth, Poole, Dorchester and Weymouth, plus the villages and towns between them. Lead time is 6–10 weeks depending on system, and we confirm dates in writing when you sign off the drawings.
What we can include
- Integrity (E) and insulation (EI) ratings to suit the route
- Residential protected stairs and commercial corridors
- Complete tested systems: frame, glass, seals and fixings
- Manufacturer evidence of performance supplied with quote
A fire-rated steel screen is a glazed steel partition designed to resist the spread of fire and, depending on its rating, heat for a set period such as 30 or 60 minutes. Read the full guide to fire-rated steel screens.
Send us a few details and photos of the opening, and we will arrange a free survey.
Fire-rated steel screens in Dorset: questions
Are fire-rated screens much thicker?
Frames and glass are a little deeper than non-rated screens, but steel systems keep the bars slim compared with most alternatives.
When do I need a fire-rated glazed screen?
When the screen forms part of a protected escape route or a fire-separating wall, such as the stair enclosure in many three-storey houses or a commercial corridor. Your building control body or fire engineer confirms the rating needed.
