What is different about partitioning in Market Harborough?
In and around Market Harborough many offices are in converted buildings, rural business units or small suites, so we design partitions to suit the space rather than forcing a standard layout.
A small team in Market Harborough usually wants the job done quickly and tidily; most compact installations are finished in one or two days once the glass or boards are ready.
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Market Harborough?
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 do Market Harborough businesses choose us?
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.
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Market Harborough offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.
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.
Typical fire rated glass partitions projects we see in Market Harborough include escape corridors, server and plant room fronts and protected reception areas. 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.

Fire Rated Glass Partitions in Market Harborough: FAQs
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Market Harborough?
Our guide price for fire rated glass partitions is £850–£1,400 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Market Harborough 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 Market Harborough office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Market Harborough 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.
