Installing fire-rated glass should be done by trained professionals who understand the specific requirements and local building codes. Typically, the glass is set in fire-rated frames and installed following the manufacturer’s guidelines. The installation process may vary depending on the type of fire-rated glass and its intended use, so it’s essential to consult with experts to ensure correct installation and compliance with safety regulations.
Fire-rated glass is versatile and can be used in various areas within a retail space, not limited to storefronts. Depending on the specific type of fire-rated glass, it can be used for interior partitions, doors, transoms, sidelites, and other areas where fire safety and visibility are essential.
Fire-rated glass is typically made using materials like tempered glass or ceramic glass. The choice of materials and their specific composition can vary depending on the manufacturer and the desired fire rating. These materials are designed to withstand high temperatures and prevent the spread of flames and smoke in the event of a fire.
Fire-rated glass and laminated glass serve different purposes. Fire-rated glass is designed to resist flames, heat, and smoke in the event of a fire. It’s tested and rated for its fire resistance, typically in terms of minutes. Laminated glass, on the other hand, is designed to enhance safety by holding together when shattered, reducing the risk of injury. It is often used in areas where impact resistance or safety from breakage is a concern. Some fire-rated glass products, like “FireLite Plus,” combine fire resistance with lamination for added safety, effectively providing protection against both fire and impact.
