What should Nottinghamshire projects plan for?
City-centre floors in Nottingham often come with raised access floors, high suspended ceilings and busy shared lobbies, so we plan deliveries, lift bookings and permits with the building manager before the team arrives.
Smaller floorplates in Nottingham 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 Nottinghamshire?
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 Nottinghamshire?
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.
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
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.
Some partitions are more than room dividers. Where a wall separates a corridor that forms an escape route, encloses a stair or plant room, or forms part of a fire compartment, it has to hold back fire and sometimes heat for a specified period. A fire rated glazed partition does that while still letting light through. The requirement normally comes from the fire strategy for the building or from Building Control, and it sets both the duration and whether the wall needs integrity only (E) or integrity and insulation (EI).
Key specifications
| Classification | E 30 / E 60 (integrity) or EI 30 / EI 60 (integrity and insulation) |
|---|---|
| Partition test standard | Non-loadbearing partitions tested to BS EN 1364-1 |
| Door test standard | Fire door sets tested to BS EN 1634-1 (older systems to BS 476-22) |
| Acoustic | EI glass typically gives approx. Rw 38–45 dB depending on build-up (lab) |
Surveys across Nottinghamshire
We cover Nottingham along with nearby Nottingham, Mansfield and Newark-on-Trent. 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.
How does a project run?
Book a survey
A member of the team measures the Nottingham office, notes access and services, and discusses layout, privacy and acoustics with you.
Design and fixed price
You receive a layout, specification and a fixed, itemised quote. Nothing is ordered until you are happy with the drawings.
Manufacture and planning
Glass and components are made to the surveyed sizes while we plan access, deliveries and any out-of-hours working.
Installation and handover
The team installs, snags and cleans, then hands over the site with any test evidence and care guidance.

Fire Rated Glass Partitions in Nottinghamshire: FAQs
Will our Nottingham landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Nottingham 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.
Do you cover areas near Nottingham?
Yes. As well as Nottingham we regularly cover Nottingham, Mansfield and Newark-on-Trent, plus the rest of Nottinghamshire and East Midlands. Survey and installation teams are arranged regionally.
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.
Whether your Nottingham project is a single room or a whole floor, we will survey, design and install your fire rated glass partitions with one team.
