Frameless Glass Balustrades
While most glass balustrade systems are supported using metal posts and raised handrails, this traditional appearance isn’t always the desired look.
For contemporary properties, which often prefer minimalist modern elegance, the seamless style of frameless glass balustrades is extremely popular. As they can be secured safely at the base with no need for a frame, you needn’t worry about posts and rails disrupting views.
Providing full support as a safety barrier, a frameless glass balustrade still protects against falls from a height – but with a sleeker aesthetic appeal.
Stairs, terraces, and balconies alike can all benefit from strong frameless toughened laminated glass balustrades, letting natural light through and keeping the view as open as possible without compromising on safety and security.
Whether indoors or outdoors, frameless balustrades can be used in a wide range of environments to bring both style and protection to varying floor levels.
So, when you choose frameless glass balustrades from the team at Glass Interiors, you’re guaranteed a durable and sophisticated solution – ideal for dividing spaces safely in residential, commercial, and public settings.

Frameless Glass Balustrade Systems
There are various ways to install frameless glass panels securely, but one of the best ways to fit glass balustrades with minimal visible fixings is by using a base shoe and cover plate at the bottom to create a channel profile, like our Sentry frameless glass balustrades.
Able to withstand line loads of up to 3kN, these stunningly sleek systems can be left with a polished edge and no handrail if toughened laminated glass is used. Otherwise, a slimline handrail can be fitted to the top when only using toughened glass, in line with safety standards.
With anodised metal or powder-coated finishes available, you can choose whether you want the base of the frameless balustrade system to blend in or create a contrast.
For staircases, steps, raised platforms, mezzanines, and balconies, a point-fixed installation is a popular alternative option that uses small round fixings instead of a channel profile base – creating the ultimate understated style, especially without handrails.
However, these provide lower line loads of up to 1.5kN, so be sure to choose a system that not only suits your aesthetic, but complies with all safety regulations, too.
