THE GLASS BANISTER IS STATE-OF-THE-ART AND GIVES STAIRS A WHOLE NEW LOOK

THE GLASS BANISTER RISES TO THE OCCASION

The glass banister is an application for our glass balustrade systems that is well worth considering in terms of creating a beautiful interior or exterior stairway because it provides many practical as well as aesthetic advantages.

The development of our semi-frameless balustrade and frameless balustrade systems permit the greater use of purer expanses of glass. The curved glass  balustrade gives you even more options where the stylish sweep of a glass banister has to complement a curved stairway.

With little need for supports except our special newell posts and no ugly glass clamps, the glass banister can blend with, complement or enhance almost any traditional or contemporary architectural context, both inside and outside. The pictures on this page give you some typical examples and you can view our gallery for more pictures of our glass banisters and balustrades.

MORE LIGHT, LESS MAINTENANCE

A banister of glass lets in more light, creating a greater feel of interior airiness and spaciousness. In exterior contexts it enables a stairway to intrude less on the overall building design. The combination of clear or tinted, toughened glass and “polished chrome” or tinted hand rails can greatly contribute to visual impact and “feel”.

The versatility of our glass balustrade range can give greater scope to the fulfilment of your imagination even when your budget is restricted.

The light, tough and enduring glass balustrade has many advantages that makes it ideally suited to glass banisters.  In terms of its toughness, imperviousness to knocks, easiness of cleaning (with the self cleaning glass option) and little or no need for maintenance, it out-performs materials such as wood, iron or masonry that are traditionally used for banisters.
