What should Gloucestershire projects plan for?
Gloucester has a broad mix of workplaces — town-centre offices, business parks, healthcare sites and light industrial units — and each needs a slightly different approach to fixing, acoustics and access.
Smaller floorplates in Gloucester make every metre count, so we often recommend glass that keeps daylight moving across the office while still giving managers a private room.
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Gloucestershire?
Insulated EI glass costs considerably more than integrity-only E glass, and the duration, frame system and fire-rated door sets account for most of the remaining range. Typical lead time: 4–6 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
Why choose us in Gloucestershire?
One point of contact
A single project contact handles survey, drawings, ordering and installation, so you are not chasing different trades.
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Matched door sets
Fire-rated glazed doors are supplied as complete tested door sets with compatible hardware, avoiding the common fault of mixing uncertified components.
Light through fire lines
Corridors, stair lobbies and compartment walls can stay bright and open while still meeting the fire strategy, instead of becoming dark solid-walled routes.
That distinction drives cost. Integrity-only glass stops flames and smoke but lets radiant heat through, which may be acceptable in some locations. Insulating glass contains intumescent interlayers that foam in a fire and keep the far side cool enough for people to pass safely, and it is considerably more expensive. We supply complete tested systems and hand over the manufacturer's test evidence and classification for the specified system, so your fire engineer, Building Control and landlord can see exactly what was installed and how it was tested.

Surveys across Gloucestershire
We cover Gloucester along with nearby Gloucester, Cheltenham and Stroud. Surveys are free and usually take under an hour for a typical office floor.
In England, partition works that affect fire safety or means of escape fall under the Building Regulations, so we flag anything that may need Building Control at survey stage.

Fire Rated Glass Partitions in Gloucestershire: FAQs
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Gloucester?
Our guide price for fire rated glass partitions is £850–£1,400 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Gloucester project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Will our Gloucester landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Gloucester office, the lease will usually require landlord consent — often a licence for alterations — before partitions are installed. We supply drawings, specifications and method statements to support the application.
What is the difference between E and EI fire rated glass?
E rated glass provides integrity only: it stops flames and hot gases passing through for the stated time but transmits heat. EI rated glass also provides insulation, limiting the temperature on the protected side, so people can pass close to it safely. EI is required in many escape routes and costs considerably more.
Do I need fire rated glass partitions in my office?
You need them where a glazed partition forms part of a fire compartment, protected escape route, stair enclosure or similar line in the building's fire strategy. Ordinary meeting rooms in an open-plan floor usually do not. Check with your fire engineer or Building Control; we review the drawings at survey and flag any likely requirement.
