Insulated Glass Floors for Exterior and Semi-Exposed Locations
Thermally broken glass floors incorporate an insulating spacer between the glass panel and the supporting frame. This prevents heat transfer, condensation and energy loss through the floor system.
Ready Glaze thermally broken glass floors are required where the panel separates a conditioned interior space from an unconditioned or exterior area. Common applications include balcony light wells, rooftop walkways and terrace deck panels.
The thermal break system includes appropriate sealing and drainage for weather protection. Panels use multi-layer laminated safety glass with anti-slip surface treatment.
These systems must meet energy efficiency requirements for building compliance. Include your opening dimensions, location details and structural drawings with your quote request.
Measurement Guidance
Measure the clear span. Confirm interior vs exterior exposure. Include load requirements, structural drawings and any compliance requirements.

Thermally broken glass floors FAQs
Common questions about our thermally broken glass floors
What is a thermally broken glass floor?
A glass floor with an insulating spacer between the glass and frame to prevent heat transfer.
Required for exterior and semi-exposed locations.
When is it required?
When the glass floor separates a heated interior from an unheated or exterior area — balconies, terraces, rooftops.
This helps reduce condensation risk and energy loss through the floor system.
How does the thermal break work?
An insulating spacer sits between the glass panel and the metal frame, preventing conductive heat transfer.
It reduces thermal bridging at the perimeter where inside and outside conditions meet.
Can it be used on a balcony?
Yes. Thermally broken systems are designed for exactly this type of application.
They’re commonly specified for balcony light wells, terraces and rooftop walk-on areas.
Can you supply across Melbourne?
Yes. Ready Glaze supplies across all Melbourne metro areas.
