What should Maidstone offices plan for?
For Maidstone offices that stay occupied during the works, we split the installation into zones so only a small part of the floor is affected at any one time.
Where a Maidstone building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
Fire Rated Glass Partitions prices in Maidstone
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.
What do you get with us in Maidstone?
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.
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.
Clear guide prices online
Our fire rated glass partitions prices are published as guide ranges, so you can budget before the survey.
Compliance designed in
We check the required duration and E or EI class against your fire strategy before ordering, so the wall is right first time rather than reworked.
Typical fire rated glass partitions projects we see in Maidstone include stair and lift lobbies, protected reception areas and kitchen and tea point enclosures. Fire-rated glazed doors are supplied as complete tested door sets with compatible hardware, avoiding the common fault of mixing uncertified components.

Maidstone fire rated glass partitions FAQs
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Maidstone?
Our guide price for fire rated glass partitions is £850–£1,400 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Maidstone project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Can you work out of hours at our Maidstone office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Maidstone so the office keeps running. Out-of-hours working usually adds a percentage to the labour cost, which is shown clearly on the quote.
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.
How long does a fire rated glass partition last in a fire?
Most office systems are classified for 30 or 60 minutes, written as E 30, EI 30, E 60 or EI 60. The figure is the time the tested system kept its integrity, and insulation where stated, in a standard furnace test to BS EN 1364-1. The duration you need is set by the building's fire strategy.
