Fire rated windows and doors

Heritage steel windows are often one of the strongest visual features of an older building. They hold the rhythm of the facade, frame light in a particular way and carry the detail that gives the building its character. When they are looked after properly, they can continue performing for decades.

Large public buildings need fire protection that is built into the project from the start. In places where thousands of people gather, move through, work, stay or attend events, fire rated steel doors and glazed systems play an important role in helping the building perform safely in an emergency.

Historic buildings need careful handling when they are brought into modern use. The goal is not to freeze a site in time, but to protect the character that gives it value while allowing the building to work for the people who will use it next.

Hospitality design has to work on several levels at once. A hotel, restaurant or guest-facing venue needs to feel open, refined and easy to move through. It also needs to perform under daily use.
