Rules of Thumb
Jockimo "rules of thumb" when considering glass flooring:
1. Safety should be the #1 concern when discussing glass flooring.
2. Only UL tested and approved anti-slip glass surfaces should be used. (Request documentation to verify authenticity.)
3. Work only with an experienced manufacturer/supplier. (Ask for references and remember - safety is of #1 importance.)
4. A structural engineer must be used to determine the make up of the glass panels.
5. Daylighting - glass should allow for the maximum amount of light to pass. (*The use of opaque anti-slip material should be avoided.)
6. Privacy - in public applications an obscure product should be used so improprieties do not occur. This obscure product should still allow for light to pass through the glass.
7. Product should be durable and easy to maintain.

Jockimo's glass flooring and stairs can be seen in some of the world's finest homes and commercial buildings, spas and casinos. A few of these are:
