Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
Fire-rated glass floors and horizontal rooflights are specialist systems with limited sizes and tested frames. We supply and install them where the evidence matches your span, load and rating, and coordinate the structural support with your engineer.
Every quote in Northampton identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Northampton 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 Northampton budgets are not open-ended.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Our Northamptonshire coverage takes in Northampton (NN1, NN2, NN5, NN3, NN4) and the neighbouring towns of Wellingborough, Daventry, Rushden. Northampton is the largest town in our Northamptonshire coverage.
