Planning fire rated partition walls in Trafford Park: local points
In and around Trafford Park 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.
Workplaces near Trafford Park often combine office space with storage or production, which is where solid stud walls, in-plant offices and glazed screens work well together.
Fire Rated Partition Walls prices in Trafford Park
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 Trafford Park 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.
Fixed price, in writing
Your quote lists the system, glass, doors, finishes and any extras, so the figure you approve is the figure you pay.
Covering all of Greater Manchester
Survey and installation teams cover Trafford Park and the wider Greater Manchester area, including Salford and Sale.
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.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Trafford Park include server, comms and plant rooms, riser enclosures and tenancy separation walls. Services crossing the wall are coordinated in advance and sealed with tested products, which is where most fire walls actually fail in inspections.

Fire Rated Partition Walls in Trafford Park: FAQs
How much do fire rated partition walls cost in Trafford Park?
Our guide price for fire rated partition walls is £75–£125 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Trafford Park 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 Trafford Park office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Trafford Park 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 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.
