Fire-Rated Windows - Facade Creations

Fire Rated Windows

Precision-Engineered Fire Safety, Without Compromising Architectural Vision

At Façade Creations, our fire-rated windows are developed to meet the dual demands of advanced fire protection and uncompromised design freedom. As fire regulations across commercial, residential, and public sectors become more stringent, developers and architects need solutions that are not only technically compliant but visually cohesive with modern building envelopes. That’s where our systems deliver with absolute authority.

We specialise in manufacturing and supplying a comprehensive range of fire-rated window systems certified to provide integrity (E), insulation (EI), and radiation control (EW) performance. Tested in accordance with BS 476: Part 22 and EN 1364/1634 standards, our window assemblies are designed to contain fire and limit thermal transmission, safeguarding occupants and assets in critical zones like escape routes, compartment walls, or façade interfaces.

Performance Standards & Classifications

Façade Creations fire-rated windows are available in classifications from EI30 to EI120, offering between 30 to 120 minutes of certified fire resistance. All units undergo third-party testing and certification to meet UK Building Regulations Part B and relevant EN standards. In addition to fire resistance, our systems offer enhanced smoke control, thermal insulation, and acoustic performance – allowing them to function as all-in-one safety and comfort solutions.

System Design & Configuration

Our windows can be tailored to fixed, side-hung, top-hung, or tilt-turn configurations, with internal or external beading options. We offer frames in thermally broken aluminum or mild steel, with slim sightlines to maintain daylight performance without compromising on strength or integrity. All ironmongery, gaskets, and seals are fire-rated and sourced from reputable UK and EU suppliers.

Glazing Composition

Fire-rated glass units are built using multi-layered constructions comprising toughened or laminated interlayers, gel-filled or intumescent solutions that remain clear under normal conditions, yet provide robust resistance in the event of fire. We offer a wide range of glazing options to suit both thermal and acoustic requirements, while achieving the desired fire rating.

Applications

Our fire-rated windows are ideal for:

Protected escape corridors and stair cores
Compartmental separation in multi-occupancy buildings
Schools, universities, and healthcare environments
Transport terminals and retail developments
Curtain wall integration within high-rise facades

Integration with Building Systems

All units can be seamlessly integrated into façade, partition, or curtain wall systems to ensure visual consistency and compliant performance throughout the building envelope. Where ventilation is required, automated opening solutions can be installed with certified smoke control functionality.

Bespoke Engineering

Façade Creations works closely with architects, contractors, and building control consultants from the design phase onwards. Each window is custom-fabricated to meet your precise fire performance needs, size constraints, and aesthetic requirements – whether for a heritage refurbishment or a state-of-the-art commercial tower.
