Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →Our fire-rated glass floors service covers Exeter and neighbouring areas such as Exmouth and Tiverton, with every job built around a tested system.

Fire-rated glass floors and horizontal rooflights are specialist systems with limited sizes and tested frames. We supply and install them where the evidence matches your span, load and rating, and coordinate the structural support with your engineer.
Whether the building is in central Exeter or the wider EX2, EX4, EX1 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Exmouth, Tiverton, Newton Abbot. Plymouth, around 59 km from Exeter, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
If an existing frame in a Exeter building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Sector guides below cover industrial units, schools and colleges and other buildings in Exeter.
Yes, with clear glass and an anti-slip finish, or obscured if privacy is needed.
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
Yes. We survey and install in Exeter and across Devon, including the EX2 district and nearby Exmouth.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
