A Wide Range of Glass Balustrades
We supply a wide range of glass balustrades that are practical, visually striking, and suitable for both indoor and outdoor spaces. All glass balustrade panels are manufactured using toughened safety glass or toughened laminated glass, depending on application and safety regulations.
Our glass balustrade systems are supplied as complete kits, including all the components required for installation. This includes glass panels, glass balustrade fittings, stainless steel posts, glass clamps, handrail glass where required, and compatible fixings. Complete glass balustrade kits remove the need to source parts separately and ensure system compatibility.
All exterior glass balustrades are manufactured to the highest safety standards using thick construction glass designed for outdoor applications. Our stainless steel components are fully tested for durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term outdoor use.
Our Post and Glass Balustrades are a timeless favourite for patios, balconies, and garden decking, combining affordability, simplicity, and elegance. This classic design enhances outdoor spaces with a sleek, open feel while ensuring safety. The posts are securely mounted to the surface using stainless steel posts with glass infill panels secured by glass clamps.
If your balustrade glass is protecting a drop of 600mm or more, building regulations require either laminated glass or a handrail for compliance. For optimal stability, we recommend placing posts at one-meter intervals, carefully marking the correct position for each post. Drilled holes are required for the secure mounting of posts and panels. If the gap between posts exceeds 1.3 meters, the glass panels may become too heavy and could loosen from the clamps, so it is important to properly fix the clamps. Enjoy the perfect blend of practicality and style with this versatile system.
These glass balustrades are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and are commonly supplied for residential properties and light commercial projects. Posts are typically spaced at one-metre intervals to ensure stability and compliance with building regulations.

Why Choose Glass Balustrades?
Glass balustrading is a popular choice for modern projects thanks to its ability to provide unobstructed views and create a sense of openness in any space. A glass balustrade system can transform a balcony or terrace into a stunning architectural feature and seamlessly blend your indoor and outdoor environments. The transparency of decking glass railings allows natural light to flow freely, enhancing the sense of space and adding a touch of elegance to your home or business.
With a variety of mounting options, including top or fascia-mounted base channels, glass clamps, and stainless steel posts, glass balustrades can be tailored to meet your specific requirements and design preferences. These systems are suitable for a wide range of applications and can be combined with different materials to create a unique, modern design. With proper installation and care, glass balustrades offer a durable, low-maintenance solution that remains stylish and functional for years to come.
Safety and Building Regulations
Glass balustrades must comply with UK building regulations to ensure safety in both residential and public buildings. Minimum height requirements typically range from 900mm for internal use to 1100mm for balconies and outdoor applications.
Using toughened glass or toughened laminated glass is essential for compliance, and the correct mounting method must be selected based on load and usage. Always ensure safety glass is specified correctly for the intended environment.
