When Are Fire-Rated Downlights Required?

Fire-rated downlights are critical in any building where ceilings serve as a fire barrier between floors. These downlights are designed to prevent the spread of fire, ensuring that the ceiling maintains its fire-resistance rating. In the event of a fire, non-fire-rated downlights can allow flames and smoke to pass through, whereas fire-rated downlights, such as those in the Saxby Shield Range, provide up to 90 minutes of fire resistance. This feature is essential for compliance with BS476-21 and is required in areas like:

  • Homes with multiple floors: Especially between floors where ceilings serve as fire barriers.
  • Commercial buildings: Offices, retail spaces, and other multi-level properties where ceilings serve as fire barriers.
