Glass railings are garnering ever-increasing widespread popularity among architects and building engineers nowadays. These railings are typically made from two types of glass, depending on the support system: single-layer tempered glass and double-layer laminated glass. There are generally two styles of glass railings: seamless designs without vertical supports and those featuring metal supports with a glass guard. The models are named based on the glass's strength and thickness, including full glass Spigot railings, Exposed glass railings, and Fixed-Point glass railings. Of these, self-standing models are preferred for their superior aesthetics and durability.
Glass railings not only enhance the beauty of stairways and terraces but also bring a sense of simplicity and elegance to the exterior and interior design of buildings. They maximize natural light and minimize visual clutter. In terms of functionality, glass stair railings are designed for beauty and safety, ensuring they can withstand the weight and impact of regular use. Standard specifications for these railings include a minimum height of 90 centimeters and a glass thickness of no less than 8 millimeters, ensuring both safety and transparency.
Balconies, characterized as roofed and covered spaces outside buildings, accessible from the inside and open to the exterior on one side, greatly benefit from using apt and stylish glass railings. These railings are essential for physical safety and psychological comfort. Glass balcony railings, reaching a height of up to 110 centimeters, are invariably made from tempered and laminated glass for utmost safety and durability.
Glass parapets, serving as uniform and clear protective barriers, are constructed from shatterproof glass. They are typically built as walls that combine multi-layer glass with special stainless steel and aluminum connectors, ranging in height from 100 to 120 centimeters. These parapets play a significant role in enhancing light in both interior and exterior spaces. Reinforced shatterproof glass in glass parapets also elevates the safety of balcony and terrace areas, providing architects with greater creative freedom in their designs. Available in both movable and fixed forms, glass parapets are selected based on the location's specific requirements. The glass thickness in these security systems ranges from 16 to 20 millimeters, exclusively using super clear tempered and laminated glass types.
