We use high-quality Toughened (Tempered) Safety Glass as a minimum. For structural applications (like frameless exterior railings), we highly recommend Toughened Laminated Glass, which holds the panel in place if it ever shatters.

Yes. Our glass is designed to be highly durable and weather-resistant. We use robust, corrosion-resistant hardware (like marine-grade stainless steel) to ensure longevity, even in high-moisture or coastal environments.

Not always. While a handrail offers comfort, frameless systems using laminated, structural-grade glass often do not require a continuous handrail, depending on the final design and application.

Frameless systems use minimal hardware (base channels or spigots) to secure the glass, providing a completely uninterrupted view. Semi-Frameless systems incorporate thin posts or rails, offering additional visual structure and often a lower price point.

Cleaning is straightforward. Use mild soap or a non-abrasive glass cleaner with a soft cloth or squeegee. We recommend avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or hardware.

Standard glass can have a slight green tint. If maximum optical clarity is desired, we recommend upgrading to Low-Iron (Ultra-Clear) Glass, which removes the green tint and ensures your views are perfectly clear and true-to-color.

The timeline varies based on the size and complexity of the project. Generally, custom manufacturing begins after the site survey and can take several weeks, followed by a professional installation that typically takes 1–3 days.

Yes, in most cases. A professional site survey is essential to confirm that your existing structure (deck joists, concrete slab, etc.) can handle the weight and load-bearing requirements of the chosen balustrade system.

In the unlikely event of breakage, Toughened Glass shatters into small, blunt fragments. Toughened Laminated Glass is designed to keep the broken pieces bonded to the interlayer, preventing panel collapse and maintaining safety until the panel can be replaced.

Yes. Every project is custom-designed based on our professional site measurements. This ensures the glass panels are precisely cut to fit all necessary angles, transitions, and curves required for your specific staircase or unique space.
