Bigger isn't Always Better
While expansive wine cellars with staircases accessing hundreds of bottles or an entire basement room can be awe-inspiring, their high cost and space demands make them impractical for many homes.

Flush Fitting Floors
The glass and steel frames in our glass well covers are designed to sit flush with floor level, ensuring a smooth transition from your floor surface to the glass and eliminating trip hazards.
The steel frame acts as a protective barrier, neatly finishing any paving, decking, or tiles up to the edge, while simplifying the installation process.
Adding LED Lights
What’s a glass well cover without the added magic of lighting? At Glass Floor Systems Ltd, we delight in seeing our customers enhance their unique historic wells with LED lighting beneath the glass, creating a stunning wow-factor.
The effect is especially breath-taking at night, casting a mesmerizing glow that highlights the well’s character and elegance over dinner and drinks with friends and family.
Safety Floor Glass
Not all floor glass is intended for regular walking; some is installed as a precautionary measure in case it’s walked on.
This example comes from a luxury London property spanning three floors, where the client, concerned about young children falling from the gallery landing two floors to the ground, sought a safety solution.
Glass Floor Systems Ltd supplied and installed walk-on glass panels with painted borders and steel support frameworks, serving as a preventive measure while preserving light flow through the property.
The glass floor measures approximately 5 meters by 2 meters, blending total safety with sympathetic design.
Thoughtful Glass Flooring
Walk-on floor glass offers versatile applications for both internal and external spaces, and with thoughtful placement, it can dramatically enhance the visual appeal of your property.
This example showcases our 25.5mm toughened and laminated floor glass, expertly integrated into a walkout balcony terrace at a client’s property.
The glass is strategically positioned to allow abundant light to filter into the rooms below, preventing any darkening or shading, while complementing the design with composite decking that serves as the primary seating and dining area.

This example features a manual system, demonstrating how even larger doors can be operated smoothly and efficiently without the need for the expense of an electric setup, highlighting the versatility of Glass Floor Systems Ltd’s solutions.
Keeping Kids Safe
Basements and wine cellars are no place for children, nor is the operation of a glass door. At Glass Floor Systems Ltd, all our doors are equipped with lockable mechanisms as standard to ensure the safety of your children or visitors and prevent unauthorized access.
