Balustrades at Glassworks Ireland

Glass balustrades can be used both inside and outside your home or commercial building to create a seamless, uninterrupted view. A glass balustrade brings to your premises beauty, sophistication and substance that allow you to enjoy the surrounding views.

Glass balustrade systems enable you to have a safe and secure balustrade with the brilliance of a nearly uninterrupted view. Spigot mount, face fixed, channel set or semi frameless fixing posts – a system for your application can be supplied.

Each method of fixing delivers its own unique advantages.

Installation Options

• Face Fixed Glass Balustrade – This type of balustrade can face fixed to many different applications including, steel & timber stair stringers, Steel Beams and concrete slabs. The ‘button’ type fixings allow your glass to be structurally sound with minimal intrusion of a crystal clear view which adds value and prestige and is increasingly popular in homes, public areas and commercial buildings.
• Channel Set – as the name suggests, the glass is mounted in an aluminium/steel structural channel or directly into the ground (adequate based required). This is a simple and cost effective method with crisp clear lines.
• Fixing Posts – A more traditional look for glass balustrades with nearly full height steel / stainless posts and clamps used to support the glass. Can be installed with or without a handrail.

Glass Options

• From 10mm to 19mm Toughened Safety Glass
