Combine Luxury & Safety with Frameless Glass Railings
Whether your living room staircase is looking a little outdated or you want to keep kids or pets safe on the patio, frameless glass railings are a beautifully durable way to transform any home or commercial space.
If you install them indoors, these innovative panels create a spacious and contemporary aesthetic. If you use them outdoors, they add peace of mind without sacrificing appearance. They’re really hard for kids to climb, and have no panels for children or pets to get through.
Also, because the panels are made of tempered glass, they’re incredibly strong and durable—they’re actually shatterproof!
Before we get into the types of rails that are available, here are a few more benefits:
- They’re maintenance-free. A squeegee coupled with our non-toxic cleaner is all you need to keep your panels looking like new.
- They’re excellent for wind and noise protection. That’s why they’re commonly used for outdoor restaurant seating.
- They’re environmentally friendly. The glass is 100% recyclable and is actually one of the greenest construction materials out there, because its basic component is easily obtainable silica (sand).
Types of Frameless Glass Railings
Top Mount
Especially practical and visually pleasing around patios, balconies, pools and verandas, because they safely enclose an area without impeding your million-dollar view.
These panels are held securely in place with horizontal metal strips, much like a curtain rail. This provides an extremely strong base for increased safety in your home or commercial building. You can opt for 12, 15 or 19 mm rails.
Side Mount
These are often used on stairways, along with balconies and verandas. Really, you can install a side mount rail almost anywhere that there is a vertical surface, and you don’t need baseboard-style foundations to hold the panels in place.
All side mount glass railings are made out of the best quality 12, 15 or 19 mm tempered glass. The finishings are stainless steel. This means they’re built to last for many years without discolouring or peeling.
