At Sashed, we take safety and building regulations seriously. Our range of fire rated windows and fire rated glazed external grade doors not only meets the most demanding safety requirements but also preserves the elegance and character of your property.
All of our fire rated products adhere to the Glass and Glazing Federation’s Best Practice in the Specification and Use of Fire-Resistant Glazed Systems. Each unit is carefully engineered and rigorously tested, ensuring exceptional fire performance without compromising aesthetics.
Built to Protect – FR30 Fire Rating
Our fire rated windows and doors are designed to resist the spread of fire for 30 minutes using specialist Contraflam FR30 glass. This advanced fire-rated glazing system can even be specified in double-glazed configurations, offering fire protection on one or both sides (inside and outside) while maintaining thermal efficiency.
Fire Rated Windows – Safety Without Sacrificing Style
Technically classified as fire rated screens, our fire rated windows are non-opening for maximum fire integrity. However, we can make them look indistinguishable from functional modern or period-style windows, manufactured in hardwood timbers to deliver both strength and fire integrity.
We have even developed fire rated sliding sash-style windows that have been approved for planning in conservation areas – a true challenge that required innovative design, careful engineering, and attention to detail to satisfy both safety regulations and heritage aesthetics.
Fire Rated Doors – Security & Style in One
Our fire rated glazed external grade doors feature built-in intumescent seals to ensure a safe, compliant barrier against fire spread. Designed for performance as well as appearance, they can be painted or stained in any colour, making them suitable for a wide range of architectural styles.
Where They’re Used
Our fire rated windows and doors are trusted in schools, nurseries, and other locations where safety is critical. Whether for commercial or residential use, they are the perfect solution where fire safety must be combined with aesthetic and conservation area sensitivity.
Designed for Demanding Use Cases
Creating fire rated products that meet both strict safety requirements and high design expectations is a challenge we embrace. Our technical team has worked tirelessly to develop designs that satisfy of our demanding commercial customers and the most sensitive planning conditions—all while ensuring reliable fire protection.
