To price your balustrade requirement first choose the shape most similar to yours
Enjoying the outdoors from the comfort of your garden, terrace, or balcony is a delightful experience, especially when the weather cooperates. However, on windy days or during other seasons, having a glass wind screen for your patio can provide that extra protection, allowing you to fully relish your private outdoor space. In this article, we will explore the benefits of glass wind screens and why they are an excellent choice for enhancing your outdoor area.
Low maintenance solution
Whether your patio or terrace requires a balustrade for safety purposes or to act as a windbreak, glass wind screens offer an ideal, low-maintenance solution. Designed to withstand outdoor conditions in all weathers, they have gained popularity, particularly in coastal and exposed areas, thanks to their robust design, construction, and corrosion resistance.
Glass wind screens for patios are available in two options: 'almost invisible' frameless glass balustrades or those with aluminium handrails. Regardless of the chosen style, these screens require minimal upkeep. A simple wipe down with a cloth is all that is necessary to remove dirt and salt deposits, ensuring they remain clear and sparkling.
Clean elegant lines
The elegant, clean lines of glass balustrades make a stylish statement in various settings, ranging from beachside locations to serene rural retreats. The transparency of clear glass allows for uninterrupted views while offering shelter on windier days. However, you may also consider the option of tinted glass to add a touch of customization and ambiance to your space.
Tinted glass for privacy
Tinted and opaque glass wind screens are a clear choice when seeking increased privacy without compromising natural light. For instance, glass privacy screens up to a height of 1.8m are frequently required by planning regulations for balconies to ensure neighbouring properties are not overlooked. In commercial settings, taller glass screens can be specifically designated as windbreaks, providing protection for patrons in outdoor areas of bars and restaurants.
Considering a glass wind screen for your patio?
Glass wind screens for patios are versatile, aesthetically pleasing, and ideal for a wide range of outdoor applications. They can be used as clear barriers around swimming pools, providing that all-important safety measure for elevated terraces, or offering protection to plants and garden users from prevailing winds.
