THE POSSIBILITIES

Open views. Considered details.

Stairs and landings

Glass can follow a stair run or define a landing while keeping the surrounding space visible. We coordinate panel divisions with the steps, corners and handrail details.

Balconies and outdoor spaces

For exterior work, the glass, metal finish and mounting system are selected together for the location. Share the balcony or stair plans so we can review the support and installation conditions.

Mounting and metalwork

Base shoe, posts, standoffs and brackets create different appearances. The structure and selected railing system guide what is appropriate; the look is developed around those requirements.

BEFORE WE MEASURE

Start with the structure.

A railing is a complete system of glass, supports and connections. Glass construction, panel dimensions and attachment details must be specified for the project. We review the drawings and supporting surfaces before finalizing the layout.

What to send us

  • Photos or drawings of the stair, landing or balcony
  • Approximate run lengths and changes in direction
  • Details of the supporting structure and desired metal finish

GOOD QUESTIONS

A few details,
before you begin.

Can glass railings be used indoors and outdoors?

Yes, with a system selected for the application. Exterior exposure, the supporting structure and project requirements affect the glass, hardware and finish choices.

Can I choose glass thickness from appearance alone?

Thickness and glass construction need to be selected with the railing system and project requirements. We review those details before specifying the panels; a shower-glass specification should not be reused for a railing.

Can the railing match my staircase?

Share the stair drawings, wood or metal finishes and inspiration photos. We can review panel divisions, mounting options and how the glass meets the handrail or adjacent surfaces.
