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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
If an existing frame in a Leyland building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Leyland budgets are not open-ended.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
We cover Leyland and the surrounding postcode districts, including PR25, PR26, PR5. Nearby towns we also serve include Chorley, Preston, Blackburn. Preston, around 7 km from Leyland, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
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.
Fire-rated glass floors applies to many building types in Leyland, including schools and colleges and blocks of flats.
