Balustrading is an important element in today’s building projects.
Balustrading Defined
Balustrading is the low, often see-through wall used alongside a flight of stairs, a balcony, a bridge, around a pool, or on a deck that is elevated from the ground, among various other applications where visibility and the passage of light are desired, while still providing a safety barrier. Frequently, it serves as a decorative element in a building.
Some of the Better Balustrading Materials
Stone Balustrading
Balustrade systems crafted from stone are not only durable but also carry a traditional charm, harking back to the Renaissance and other Italian architectural styles.
In contrast, modern British architecture seldom incorporates stone balustrades.
Wrought Iron Balustrading
Wrought iron balustrading can be splendid, particularly when paired with stone staircases. However, their costs can be prohibitive, and high-quality wrought iron balustrades are rarely seen in today's construction projects across the United Kingdom.
Balustrading in Glass
Arguably, some of the best balustrading in the UK is currently achieved using glass. In line with today's minimalist design trends and the desire to maximize natural light within buildings, glass balustrading stands out as an obvious choice.
Glazed Balustrading by Balconette
Innovation has been the key ingredient in Balconette’s success. Specializing in glass balustrades, Juliet balconies, , they have invested significant time and effort in perfecting the manufacturing process. They are pioneers in crafting custom curved balustrading for balconies and Juliet balconies at competitive prices.
Another groundbreaking innovation was a manufacturing process that allowed Balconette to first create the balustrading and then precisely tailor the railing to fit the glass as closely to perfection as possible.
