What should Hammersmith offices plan for?
Older stock across Hammersmith — period buildings, converted warehouses and 1960s–80s blocks — tends to have uneven floors and varied ceiling heights, which is why every quote here follows a measured survey rather than a guess.
Many Hammersmith occupiers are on shorter leases or flexible terms, so we talk through demountable options and dilapidations at the start rather than leaving them for the end of the lease.
What do fire rated partition walls cost in Hammersmith?
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.
Why do Hammersmith businesses choose us?
Acoustic bonus
Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.
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.
Landlord-ready paperwork
Drawings, method statements and risk assessments are supplied for your landlord or managing agent's approval.
Covering all of Greater London
Survey and installation teams cover Hammersmith and the wider Greater London area, including Westminster and Ealing.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Hammersmith include protected escape corridors, riser enclosures 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.
Key specifications
| Framing | Steel studs 50–146mm at the system's specified centres |

Covering Hammersmith and nearby
We cover Hammersmith along with nearby Westminster, Ealing and Camden. 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.
From survey to handover
Measure and assess
We take accurate measurements on site in Hammersmith, check the ceiling void and floor, and agree what the new layout must achieve.

Production and logistics
Made-to-measure panels are produced and we book deliveries, lifts and parking around your building.
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 partition walls in Hammersmith
How soon can you start on a Hammersmith 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 Hammersmith office that stays open.
Will our Hammersmith landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Hammersmith 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.
How long does a fire rated stud wall last in a fire?
Office fire walls are commonly classified for 30, 60 or 90 minutes, such as EI 30 or EI 60. That figure is the time the tested wall maintained integrity and insulation in a standard furnace test. The duration you need is set by the building's fire strategy and Approved Document B.
Do fire rated walls need fire doors?
Yes. A door in a fire rated wall must be a fire door set tested to the same or appropriate rating, with compatible frame, hinges, closer, seals and signage. A standard door undermines the wall. We supply complete tested door sets and can check existing doors for suitability.
