Glass Balustrades for Balconies
Balconies are one of the most common applications for balustrades. They:
- Enhance outdoor entertaining areas.
- Provide clear, unobstructed views.
- Add safety for multi-storey homes and apartments.
Our installations are designed to handle Brisbane’s climate, from inner-city apartments to coastal suburbs like Redcliffe.
Glass Balustrades for Staircases
Glass balustrades on staircases create an open, modern look with practical benefits:
- Improved Light Flow – Maximises natural light between floors.
- Illusion of Space – Makes smaller areas feel larger.
- Increased Property Value – A stylish feature that appeals to buyers.
Outdoor & Garden Applications
Beyond balconies and staircases, glass balustrades are increasingly used outdoors:
- Around decks and patios to create defined spaces.
- Across garden areas for stylish safety boundaries.
- Around pools, where they meet strict AS/NZS 1926.1 requirements for pool fencing.
These installations bring a resort-style look to Brisbane backyards while maintaining compliance with Queensland pool safety standards.
