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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Wales, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Ammanford around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Ammanford, including the SA18 districts, and in nearby Gorseinon, Llanelli, Neath. Llanelli, around 17 km from Ammanford, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
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.
Sector guides below cover care homes, public buildings and other buildings in Ammanford.
