Learn more →If a building in Arbroath 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.
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.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
We cover Arbroath and the surrounding postcode districts, including DD11. Nearby towns we also serve include Dundee, Glenrothes, Perth. Dundee, around 26 km from Arbroath, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Every quote in Arbroath identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
If an existing frame in a Arbroath building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
Fire-rated glass floors applies to many building types in Arbroath, including retail and leisure units and offices.
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
