Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →If a building in Farnborough 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.
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.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
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.
We cover Farnborough and the surrounding postcode districts, including GU11, GU14, GU16, GU17, GU12, GU15. Nearby towns we also serve include Camberley, Aldershot, Fleet. Southampton, around 63 km from Farnborough, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Farnborough budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
If an existing frame in a Farnborough building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, public buildings and other buildings in Farnborough.
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
Yes, using specialist tested systems that cover load-bearing capacity as well as integrity and insulation.
Building work in Farnborough follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
