As specialists in architectural steelwork, we work alongside architects and project managers to create beautifully crafted framed steel and glass balustrades which meet all customer expectations.
Whilst steel and glass balustrades perform a crucial safety measure for staircases, balconies, and walkways, they do so in a way which complements a space. For outdoor use, glass balconies are a contemporary way to facilitate a great view, whilst they can open up and brighten an internal space such as an office.
Working within the parameters of each unique space, Bromsgrove Steel creates bespoke balustrade systems which perform a functional duty, whilst also providing an aesthetically pleasing design.
How thick should a glass balustrade be?
The thickness of glass for a glass balustrade will vary depending on its structural system. For instance, typically 10mm of toughened glass is sufficient for framed structures, whereas between 15-25 mm of toughened glass could be required for frameless systems or for increased load applications such as public spaces. Glass thickness should be decided upon individual application, since it can be further affected by glass span, usage, and building type.
