Fire-Rated Glass Floors in Westminster: what's included

A fire-rated glass floor is a walk-on glazed floor panel, set in a tested support frame, that keeps both its load-bearing capacity and its fire resistance for a stated time. Because a floor carries load, its classification also includes R for load-bearing capacity alongside integrity and insulation.

  • Coordination with the structural engineer
  • Handover evidence
  • Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
  • Steel support frames to the tested details

Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters

Rooflights

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

Sizes are limited

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

Slip resistance

Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.

Whether the building is in central Westminster or the wider SW1, SW1A, W1M, SW1X, EC1A, EC1M districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Pimlico, London, Chelsea. Westminster sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Pimlico.
