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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Skegness, including the PE25 districts, and in nearby Boston, King's Lynn, Spalding. Skegness is about 59 km from Lincoln, the largest town in our Lincolnshire coverage.
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
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 can phase work in Skegness around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
