What our fire-rated glass floors service includes in Ely

A fire-rated glass floor is a walk-on glazed floor panel, set in a tested support frame, that keeps both its load-bearing capacity and its fire resistance for a stated time. Because a floor carries load, its classification also includes R for load-bearing capacity alongside integrity and insulation.

  • Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
  • Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
  • Handover evidence
  • Coordination with the structural engineer

What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Ely

Slip resistance

Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.

Rooflights

Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.

Programme

Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
