Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
