Framed glass railings are the most common among glass railing systems. These railings offer you a combination of luxury and safety. Framed glass railings feature clear glass panels held in place by a frame.

5 Benefits of Glass Deck Railings

 

1. Maximize Your View

The last thing a homeowner wants is to cover their beautiful patio view with a railing. With frameless glass railings, you can create a safe barrier without losing sight of your stunning view. There might be areas in your space that you would like a bit of privacy such as your hot tub or your deck for private parties. Our glass deck railing system comes with your choice of clear or frosted glass for those particular areas, which makes glass railings a highly customizable product.

 

2. Virtually Maintenance Free

Generally, glass railings will easily clean up with a quick sponge. Homes with small children or pets may require a bit more upkeep. However, compared to traditional wood railings – which require regular upkeep such as sanding and staining – glass railings are low maintenance and keep well against natural elements.

 

3. Durable, Even in Harsh Conditions

Unlike steel and wood posts, treated glass and aluminum railings don’t corrode when exposed to elements such as snow and water or chlorine from the pool. The glass surface is also able to tolerate extreme temperatures.

 

4. Safe & Strong

Our 5mm (3/16″) tempered glass panels are strong and sturdy against breaks. With solid glass panels, there is no fear of children or pets falling through. Instead, you enjoy the view without climbing the rails.

 

5. Customize Your Design

Glass railings have a wide variety of tinted glass panels, various top rails to select from, and 8 modern colors. Installation options vary based on framed and frameless selections.
