Frameless glass balcony on a new-build home

The design brief.

The recessed first-floor balcony sits within a brick and zinc-clad elevation, so the guarding needed to deliver compliant edge protection while keeping the crisp, uninterrupted lines of the contemporary architecture.

A coordinated approach.

Frameless laminated safety-glass panels are set in a slim base channel along the balcony edge, aligned flush with the fascia so the glass reads as a clean continuation of the building envelope. The installation is coordinated with the main contractor around the ongoing works.

• Frameless glass balcony balustrade in a base channel
• Laminated safety glass with a slim top rail detail
• Flush alignment with the brick and zinc elevation

Applying the idea to your building.

No two sites share exactly the same structure, geometry or access conditions. This example shows a design direction, not a ready-made specification. A survey and project-specific coordination establish the glass build-up, fixing arrangement and installation plan for your property.
