Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters

Programme

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

Load and fire together

A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.

Rooflights

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