What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Wakefield
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Fire glazing rules in England
England Which rules apply?
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.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
