What to check before ordering in Clwyd
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Load and fire together
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Regulations for Clwyd projects
Wales Which rules apply?
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Fire-Rated Glass Floors in Clwyd: questions
Can we see through it?
Yes, with clear glass and an anti-slip finish, or obscured if privacy is needed.
Can a glass floor be fire-rated?
Yes, using specialist tested systems that cover load-bearing capacity as well as integrity and insulation.
What does REI mean?
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
Do you cover all of Clwyd?
Yes. We take enquiries from across Clwyd, including Wrexham and Buckley, Deeside, Colwyn Bay, Flint, and arrange surveys to suit your programme.
