Learn more →If a building in Hailsham needs fire-rated glass floors, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
Our East Sussex coverage takes in Hailsham (BN27) and the neighbouring towns of Eastbourne, Seaford, Bexhill-on-Sea. Hailsham is about 28 km from Brighton, the largest town in our East Sussex coverage.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
If an existing frame in a Hailsham building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Hailsham budgets are not open-ended.
