  • Architects have a tough job when it comes to
    designing homes and other buildings where the
    aesthetics matter as much as safety requirements.
    If a spectacular view is intended to serve as the
    focal point for a balcony, walkway or backyard,
    for example, the requirements of safety might
    force the beauty aspect to take a backseat. This
    doesnt have to be the case when a glass
    railingsystem is used in place of standard
    barrier walls or fences.
  • A glass balcony railingis simply a smart
    alternative to other barrier options that might
    impede or even entirely block views. Using
    specialized posts that anchor a special safety
    glass to create a barrier, these designs enable
    those architects out there to strike a balance
    between beauty and good common sense. When
    properly designed and installed, a glass
    railingsystem will meet all building codes,
    providing the safety viewers need without
    blocking the landscape in the process.
  • While a glass railingsystem might not work in
    every circumstance, these see-through barriers
    are ideal for use on

  • Balcony and rooftop designs Rather than create
    view-blocking barriers, these thin-seamed
    balconies provide a clear view while ensuring the
    strength necessary to protect people from
    accidental spills. Since the actual railings are
    very thin, they dont create the visual
    disruption that other barriers might.
  • Pool fencing Theres no reason to use six-foot,
    view blocking privacy fencing to keep people out
    of a pool area. Keep the view and still enjoy the
    required measure of safety by using a glass
    balcony railinginstead.
  • Scenic walkways and nature areas A glass
    railingsystem is the ideal design for use in
    creating a barrier between people and the wild
    that doesnt seem so intrusive. They are ideal
    for use in backyards that boast incredible views.
    They also work well for scenic walkways, around
    docks and so on.

Theres no reason to forego beauty when a glass
railing system delivers the safety building codes
call for. This unique design enables architects
to create the balance they need with visual
results that are sure to please.
