Glass Railings
Glass railings are the king of offering safety without obstructing views. Not only is this great for exterior spaces like a deck or balcony, but when used inside the home it helps make a space feel larger.
Glass pairs well with both wood and metal, so whether you are looking for more industrial, modern, or luxury feel for your home, glass railings are worth the considering.

The cost of a glass railing varies depending on the complexity of the project (ex- curved versus straight), the quality if the material chosen (ex- tempered versus laminated glass, steel type, etc.), and the glass railing style chosen. We do offer a free consultation for all projects, so contact us and we can get you an accurate estimate for your specific project.

The 3 main types of glass railing systems are:
Frameless Glass Railing Systems: Glass panels held in place by base shoes or standoffs with no vertical posts.
Semi-Framed Glass Railing Systems: Glass panels are supported by a vertical post, but no top or bottom rail.
Framed Glass Railing Systems: Glass panels are fully enclosed by a frame.

Yes! The glass used for glass railings is either tempered glass or laminated glass, both of which are highly durable and impact resistant.
In addition to the type of glass used, the style or installation method for glass railings contributes to their safety. There are strict standards that all railings must meet in order to meet modern building codes. We ensure that all glass railings installed meet the current building codes, so not only will your glass railing be beautiful, but structurally sound and safe as well.
