How do Crawley buildings affect the install?
Business parks around Crawley 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.
For Crawley offices that stay occupied during the works, we split the installation into zones so only a small part of the floor is affected at any one time.
What do fire rated partition walls cost in Crawley?
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 Crawley businesses choose us?
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.
Tested systems, documented
We use manufacturers' tested partition systems and hand over the relevant performance and test evidence at completion.
Free survey in Crawley
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
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.
Typical fire rated partition walls projects we see in Crawley include protected escape corridors, tenancy separation walls and kitchens and storage rooms. Multi-layer fire walls are also good acoustic walls, so plant rooms and stair enclosures keep noise away from the surrounding office.

How do surveys work in Crawley?
If you are in Crawley or close by in Horsham or Haywards Heath, book a free survey and we will come and measure. You will receive drawings and a fixed price before you commit to anything.
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.

Fire Rated Partition Walls in Crawley: FAQs
Do you install fire rated partition walls in Crawley?
Yes. We survey, supply and install fire rated partition walls throughout Crawley and the wider West Sussex area, including Horsham and Reigate. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
Will our Crawley landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Crawley 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 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.
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.
