Planning fire rated glass partitions in Worthing: local points
Business parks around Worthing usually offer open floorplates with suspended ceilings, which suit glazed meeting rooms and full-height partitions once the ceiling void and services have been checked.
Where a Worthing building has a managing agent, we provide method statements, risk assessments and drawings in advance so the licence for alterations is not held up.
How much do fire rated glass partitions cost in Worthing?
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 Worthing?
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.
Clear guide prices online
Our fire rated glass partitions prices are published as guide ranges, so you can budget before the survey.
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.
Typical fire rated glass partitions projects we see in Worthing include stair and lift lobbies, compartment walls between tenancies and kitchen and tea point enclosures. Corridors, stair lobbies and compartment walls can stay bright and open while still meeting the fire strategy, instead of becoming dark solid-walled routes.

Do you survey in Worthing?
We cover Worthing along with nearby Hove, Brighton and Bognor Regis. 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 Worthing project run?
Book a survey
A member of the team measures the Worthing 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.
Fit, check and hand over
Installation is completed, doors and seals are adjusted, the area is cleaned and the job is signed off with you.
Questions about fire rated glass partitions in Worthing
How soon can you start on a Worthing project?
Typical lead time for fire rated glass partitions is 4–6 weeks from signed-off drawings, mostly because materials are made to measure. Installation itself is usually a matter of days for a typical office, and we can phase work around a Worthing office that stays open.
Will our Worthing landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Worthing 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.
