Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →From the UB5 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glass floors for buildings across Northolt, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.
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.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
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.
We cover Northolt and the surrounding postcode districts, including UB5, UB6, UB4, HA1, HA0, UB1. Nearby towns we also serve include Greenford, Harrow, Southall. Northolt is one of the Greater London districts we cover.
Every quote in Northolt identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Northolt around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Northolt budgets are not open-ended.
We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, retail and leisure units and other building types in Northolt.
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
Building work in Northolt follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

We measure each opening in Northolt and check what the existing frames can accept.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
Work is completed to the manufacturer's details and documented for your records.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
