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.

  • Steel support frames to the tested details
  • Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
  • Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
  • Tested walk-on fire-rated glass floor systems

What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Pitsea

Programme

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

Sizes are limited

Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.

Rooflights

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

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

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.
