  • Things to Consider When Installing Glass Balustrades

Things to Consider When Installing Glass Balustrades

Complementing the interiors and exteriors of your office building, balustrades are a versatile railing that is both visually striking and functional. They’re strong and durable, create an illusion of larger space, and bring elegance and sophistication to your building architecture. If you’re sold on the idea, the first step to sourcing a reliable glass balustrade manufacturer is to do your research. Here are a few things to consider.

1. Do you know exactly what you want?

Wanting a glass balustrade installed is one thing but knowing how you want it to look is another. Remember, glass is a multifaceted material and can go a long way in terms of design. Is your purpose to bring in more natural light? Are you hoping to achieve a sleeker office? Consult idea-sharing websites such as Pinterest to help put your concept together.

2. Where will you have your balustrade installed?

Glass balustrades are eye-catching and will definitely draw anyone’s attention. Thus, it’s imperative that you situate it in an area of your building that acts as a focal point. If you’re second-guessing your placement, consult with an interior designer. A second opinion never hurts!

3. How much are you prepared to invest in your structure?

Balustrades can be pricey but can change the value proposition of your building should your business ever choose to relocate. If you can’t yet afford your ideal balustrade, don’t settle for the cheapest contractor. Treat your balustrade instalment as an investment. Shop around for a contractor who will best satisfy your needs.

4. Where will you source your products?

The balustrade itself and your installer won’t always come as a package deal. Before you link up with a contractor, prioritise the products you want to work with. The main types of glass balustrades are framed, semi-framed, and frameless. Study the differences between all three to determine which one will suit your framework best.

  • Framed: as its title suggests, these balustrades come with metal edging that is ideal for traditional designs.
  • Semi-framed: these balustrades combine stainless steel posts with toughened glass panels.
  • Frameless: unobstructed by a frame or railing, frameless balustrades offer fantastic views and are easy to maintain.

Also, keep in mind that you can opt to use a stainless steel or glass balustrade.

5. Who will install the balustrade for you?

The final step to balustrade installation is to source a certified contractor to get the job done for you. Never treat installation like a DIY project—amateurs and freelance agents won’t have the expertise that comes with a certification.

Conclusion

A popular addition to modern interiors, glass balustrades bring a charming and elegant touch to your space. The material used to create them is strong, safe, and rarely breaks, making glass balustrades an ideal way to refresh an outdated office building.
