Frameless Glass Balustrading
Frameless glass balustrading, also known as structural glass balustrading, is a type of balustrade that uses glass as the primary structural element. It is typically composed of toughened laminated glass, which is a type of glass that is made up of two or more layers of glass that are bonded together with a PVB interlayer. This makes the glass extremely strong and durable, and it is able to withstand high loads.
Frameless glass balustrades are typically secured in place using a variety of methods, including:
- Base fixings: These fixings are attached to the floor or other substrate, and the glass panels are then clamped into place.
- Top fixings: These fixings are attached to the top of the glass panels, and they are typically used in conjunction with base fixings.
- Channel fixings: These fixings are used to secure the glass panels into a channel that is attached to the floor or other substrate.
Frameless glass balustrades can be used in a variety of applications, including:
- Balconies
- Terraces
- Staircases
- Mezzanines
- Pool surrounds
- Interior partitions
