Roof & Floor Lights
Roof & Floor Lights
Durable, tested and certified glass and concrete floorlights and rooflights, manufactured in pre-cast or in situ constructions for projects across the UK.
Luxcrete offers one of the widest ranges of durable, tested and certified pre-cast and in situ rooflight and floorlight panels in the UK. Manufactured using glass and reinforced concrete, our bespoke constructions are designed to bring natural light into internal rooms, basements, walkways and roof spaces while maintaining the strength and character required for demanding building projects.
Most Luxcrete floorlight constructions can also be supplied with matching stair treads, helping to create a clear, continuous aesthetic across the floor, stairs and surrounding space. As long-established specialists in glass and ferro-concrete structures, Luxcrete provides roof and floor lights that suit modern, contemporary and heritage projects.
Our floorlights and rooflights are designed to enhance a building project both technically and visually. They can:
- Transmit natural daylight into rooms, lower levels and dark corners.
- Add extra light without sacrificing usable floor space.
- Create a striking statement piece when paired with Luxcrete stair treads or other glazed floor details.
- Provide excellent levels of fire resistance on most constructions.
- Help create a softer, brighter atmosphere in residential, commercial and public-sector spaces.
- Offer a durable, low-maintenance solution where glass, concrete and careful placement all have a clear purpose.
All Luxcrete products, including our floorlights and rooflights, are designed and substantiated by full engineering calculations provided by our retained consultant engineers, Mason Navarro Pledge. Our constructions are also rigorously tested by established facilities, including load testing at the Building Research Establishment (BRE), Garston.
When choosing roof or floor lights for a project, proof of design should be available, current and appropriate for the specific loading, span, placement, size and site requirements. Luxcrete panels are manufactured to meet bespoke project needs, giving architects, contractors and clients clear technical confidence before installation.
Roof & Floor Lights
Where Roof & Floor Lights Can Be Used
Luxcrete rooflights and floorlights can be used in a wide range of building environments, from private homes and smaller rooms to commercial, retail, education, healthcare and public-sector projects. They are particularly effective where natural daylight is needed below a roof, through a floor, into a basement or across an internal space.
Depending on the construction type, Luxcrete floor lights can help brighten circulation areas, corridors, stairwells, entrances and rooms where conventional windows may not provide enough light. Their glass and concrete format also allows them to become an architectural feature, adding character, warmth and a clean aesthetic without compromising the function of the floor or roof.
Design, Finishes and Specification Options
Each Luxcrete panel is made to suit the individual requirements of the project. Options may include panel size, edge details, lens format, concrete colour, surface texture, soffit finish and glass treatment, depending on the selected construction.
The range includes square and circular lens designs, different panel depths and constructions suitable for a variety of spans and pedestrian loading requirements. For floorlight applications, sandblasted glass lens options can be recommended to increase slip resistance where appropriate.
This makes it easy for specifiers to explore the possibilities and select a rooflight or floorlight construction that balances performance, style, placement and budget while remaining simple to integrate into the wider design.
Planning, Placement and Surrounding Materials
The right place for a Luxcrete floorlight or rooflight depends on the panel size, span, loading, access and the way the room or wider space will be used. In living rooms, kitchens, entrance halls or basement conversions, floor lights can be planned around fixed furniture, a sofa or table, while still keeping the main route across the floor clear.
The sleek glass finish can complement contemporary décor and surrounding materials such as metal, black steel, stone, brass detailing or wood. Luxcrete panels themselves are structural glass and reinforced concrete constructions, not plastic covers, crystal light fittings or decorative lamp products, which keeps the specification clear, durable and suitable for its purpose.
Used in the right position, they can add a calm, relaxing quality to darker interiors and create a perfect balance between practical performance and architectural style.
Supply Only, Supply and Fix or In Situ Roof & Floor Lights
Every Luxcrete panel is bespoke to the requirements of the project. To help architects, contractors and clients choose the right route, Luxcrete offers several ways to incorporate rooflights and floorlights into a building:
