Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →For Great Yarmouth buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated glass floors wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
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.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
We cover Great Yarmouth and the surrounding postcode districts, including NR30, NR31. Nearby towns we also serve include Lowestoft, Norwich, Stowmarket. Norwich, around 29 km from Great Yarmouth, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
If an existing frame in a Great Yarmouth building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Great Yarmouth budgets are not open-ended.
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 survey and quote for healthcare buildings, blocks of flats and other building types in Great Yarmouth.
Yes, using specialist tested systems that cover load-bearing capacity as well as integrity and insulation.
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
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.
Yes. We survey and install in Great Yarmouth and across Norfolk, including the NR30 district and nearby Lowestoft.
