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.
Coverage around East Grinstead includes the RH19 districts and nearby Horley, Crawley, Crowborough. East Grinstead lies roughly 12 km from Crawley, within our West Sussex coverage.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
