How do Armagh buildings affect the install?
In and around Armagh 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.
For Armagh businesses that share a building, we keep noise, dust and deliveries to agreed windows so neighbours are not disturbed.
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Armagh?
The required duration (30, 60 or 90 minutes), number of fire board layers, wall height and the extent of fire stopping around services and at the head set the price. Typical lead time: 1–3 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
What do you get with us in Armagh?
Penetrations planned
Services crossing the wall are coordinated in advance and sealed with tested products, which is where most fire walls actually fail in inspections.
Handover records
You receive the system classification, fire-stopping record and photographs, giving your fire risk assessor and Building Control clear evidence of what was built.
Snagging and aftercare
We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Armagh include stair and lift enclosures, tenancy separation walls and kitchens and storage rooms. We follow the manufacturer's tested details for studs, boards, fixings and head, so the wall achieves the classification it is meant to have.

Do you survey in Armagh?
Survey visits across County Armagh — including Armagh, Portadown and Dungannon — are free and carry no obligation. We measure, photograph and note services so the quote is accurate first time.
In Northern Ireland, the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) apply and are administered by the local council's building control team; we flag anything that may need approval at survey stage.
From survey to handover
Measure and assess
We take accurate measurements on site in Armagh, check the ceiling void and floor, and agree what the new layout must achieve.
Drawings and quote
We prepare drawings and an itemised fixed price, adjusting the design until it works for your team and budget.
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.
Questions about fire rated partition walls in Armagh
How soon can you start on a Armagh project?
Typical lead time for fire rated partition walls is 1–3 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 Armagh office that stays open.
Can you work out of hours at our Armagh office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Armagh so the office keeps running. Out-of-hours working usually adds a percentage to the labour cost, which is shown clearly on the quote.
How much does a fire rated partition wall cost?
Fire rated partition walls typically cost £75–£125 per m² supplied and installed, excluding VAT. A 30-minute wall with one layer of fire board each side sits at the lower end; 60 or 90-minute walls with multiple layers and extensive fire stopping sit at the top. Fire doors are priced separately. We confirm a fixed price after a free survey.
Who signs off a fire rated partition wall?
Where walls affect escape routes or compartmentation, Building Control normally reviews and inspects the work. Your fire risk assessor will also want evidence for the fire risk assessment. We hand over the system classification, fire-stopping records and photographs so both can verify what was built.
Whether your Armagh project is a single room or a whole floor, we will survey, design and install your fire rated partition walls with one team.
