Types of Glass Balustrades We Install
We design, manufacture, and install a range of glass balustrade systems, each tailored to suit the layout of your space and the finish you’re looking to achieve. Whether you’re working on a modern renovation or a new build, each system is made to measure and installed with care.
Frameless Glass Balustrades
Frameless glass balustrades offer a clean, uninterrupted finish, making them ideal for contemporary spaces. With minimal visible fixings, they allow light to flow freely while maintaining a strong and secure barrier.
These systems are commonly used on staircases, landings, and external areas where maintaining a clear view is important.
Juliet Balconies
Juliet balconies are designed for full-height doors, providing a safe barrier without the need for a projecting platform. They’re a practical and visually clean solution for upper-floor openings, particularly with bifold or French doors.
Each Juliet balcony is made to measure, ensuring it fits precisely and complements the surrounding structure
Internal Glass Balustrades
Internal glass balustrades are well suited to staircases and mezzanine levels, helping to open up interior spaces while maintaining safety. The use of glass reduces visual weight compared to traditional railings, creating a lighter, more modern feel.
We manufacture panels to suit your staircase layout, ensuring a consistent and well-finished result.
External Glass Balustrades
External glass balustrades are commonly installed on patios, raised areas, and garden boundaries. They provide a durable and low-maintenance solution that stands up to the elements while keeping views open.
Each installation is designed to suit the environment, with appropriate fixing systems and glass specifications for outdoor use.

Glass Specifications & Safety
Every glass balustrade we supply is specified with safety, durability, and compliance in mind. We use toughened safety glass as standard, with laminated options available where required, ensuring each installation meets current UK building regulations.
Toughened & Laminated Safety Glass
All panels are manufactured using toughened glass, which is heat-treated to increase strength and safety. Where additional protection is needed, laminated glass can be used, helping to hold the panel in place if damaged.
This combination provides a strong, reliable barrier suitable for both internal and external applications.
Glass Thickness Options
The thickness of the glass is selected based on the installation type and fixing system. Common options include:
- 10mm toughened glass for certain internal applications
- 12mm and above for external or structural use
- Laminated combinations for added strength and compliance
Each specification is chosen to suit the layout and ensure a safe, long-lasting result.
Fixing Systems & Installation Methods
We offer a range of fixing options depending on the design and location:
- Frameless base channel systems for a clean, minimal finish
- Post and clamp systems where additional support is required
All systems are selected to provide a secure installation while maintaining the overall appearance of the glass.
Building Regulations & Compliance
All glass balustrades are designed and installed in line with current UK building regulations. This includes correct glass specification, height requirements, and safe installation methods.
We ensure each installation meets the necessary standards, giving you confidence in both the safety and quality of the finished result.
Glass Balustrade Costs & Options
The cost of a glass balustrade varies depending on the design, size, and installation requirements. As each system is made to measure, pricing is based on the specifics of your project rather than a fixed rate.
What Affects the Cost?
Several factors influence the final price:
- Size and layout – longer runs, corners, and changes in level increase material and installation time
- Glass specification – thickness, toughened vs laminated, and overall panel size
- Fixing system – frameless base channels typically differ in cost from post and clamp systems
- Access and installation – ease of access, preparation work, and fixing surfaces
Bespoke vs Standard Systems
We manufacture to measure, which allows each balustrade to be designed around your space. While off-the-shelf systems can suit some applications, a bespoke approach ensures a better fit, a cleaner finish, and a result that aligns with the property.
Indicative Guidance
Rather than listing generic prices, we provide clear, project-specific quotes based on your requirements. This ensures the specification is correct from the outset and avoids unexpected adjustments later on.
If you have approximate measurements or photos of the area, we can usually provide an initial estimate, followed by a confirmed quote once details are finalised.
