Factory Assembled

Fire Guard windows are an assembly of glass block, mortar; ladder web reinforcing, panel anchors, ceramic fiber wool expansion joints and fire stop sealant.

Fire Guard window assemblies are fully manufactured and ready for deliver. Once on site, they simply fasten into place. UL requires the entire Fire Guard wood frame to be covered with 5/8" drywall to insulate and protect the wood from fire. This is to be done after the units are fastened into their openings. Due to the weight factor the Fire Guard windows are limited to 12 sq. ft. Larger applications can be manufactured in sections and joined together at the job site. On-site assembly can be done for larger applications up to 120 sq. ft. including radius walls.
