			DONCASTER WOOL MARKET, YORKSHIRE. WALK ON GLASS WELL COVER
 
			CIRCULAR WALK ON GLASS FLOOR, ELTHAM, LONDON
The walk on glass floor is composed of triple-laminated structural glass panels, designed to carry loads safely across a circular span. Each layer is bonded using high-strength interlayers to resist impact and shear, providing exceptional durability and redundancy.
Beneath the structural layer, a double-glazed unit contributes thermal insulation and acoustic separation, while maintaining a visually clear cavity. Within this cavity, a stainless steel laser-cut grill is suspended — serving as both a functional and aesthetic component. The grill’s geometry introduces a play of light and shadow that animates the surface throughout the day.
The result is a walkable glass system that performs as beautifully as it looks — robust enough for public use, refined enough for luxury interiors, and engineered to exacting standards of transparency and strength.
Walk-On Glass Well Covers: Safe and Stylish Protection for Water Wells
Ground wells that contain water are essential features for many properties — whether they supply household water, support irrigation, or serve as beautiful garden focal points. However, open wells can pose serious safety and maintenance challenges. That’s where walk-on glass well covers come in — offering a perfect balance of protection, strength, and aesthetic appeal.
What Are Walk-On Glass Well Covers?
A walk-on glass well cover is a reinforced, load-bearing glass surface designed to cover the opening of a ground water well. These covers are built from toughened laminated safety glass, supported by a stainless-steel or aluminum frame, making them strong enough to walk on safely.
Unlike traditional wooden or metal well lids, glass well covers keep your water clean and secure while maintaining visibility into the well below — ideal for those who want a practical yet elegant solution.
Benefits of Glass Well Covers for Water Wells
1. Safety First
An open well can be a hazard for children, pets, and even adults. A walk-on glass well cover provides a solid, secure surface that prevents accidental falls while still allowing the well to function as intended.
2. Clean and Contaminant-Free Water
Glass well covers form a watertight seal, keeping out leaves, dirt, insects, and debris that can contaminate water. This helps preserve water quality and reduces maintenance requirements.
3. Strength You Can Trust
Each cover is engineered to handle substantial weight, making it completely safe to walk or stand on. The glass panels are designed to withstand weather changes, heavy rainfall, and snow loads.

Custom-Made for Every Well
Every well is unique, which is why our custom glass well covers are tailored to fit your exact dimensions and requirements. Options include round, square, or irregular shapes, as well as specialized coatings to prevent condensation or glare. You can even choose tinted or anti-slip glass for added safety.
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR TIME CAPSULE
The capsule is on view through the glass cover in the West Atrium and part of the stadium tour route.
Time capsules have traditionally been used as a means of communicating with future generations, containing key items from the time in order to provide an insight into the era.
The stadium capsule contains a number of artefacts and documents that will be opened in 50 years’ time.
