Types of glass stair railings at Made-in-glass.com
Frameless glass balustrades
Frameless glass balustrades embody the very essence of modern elegance. Devoid of any visible support, they offer seamless transparency, creating an uncluttered aesthetic.
These frameless systems are installed using a mounting rail, either at the base (base mounting) or along the sides (side mounting) of the surface. The glass panels are then carefully positioned and secured in the rail profile, ensuring solid, stable installation without compromising the structure's transparent, elegant appearance.
Semi-frameless glass railing
Semi-frameless glass balustrades represent the perfect balance between the lightness of frameless balustrades and the additional support of framed balustrades. They incorporate a minimal metal support that combines style and strength.
In this configuration, glass clamps or semi-post connectors are used to attach the glass panels at precise points. You can choose between round, square, rectangular or oval clamps, depending on your preferences.

Our staircase glass balustrades by installation method
Thanks to their flexibility, the glass balustrades offered by Made-in-glass.com offer a variety of installation options.
Recessed installation
The recessed installation method for glass balustrades involves integrating them directly into the floor. The glass is embedded in the slab, creating the illusion that the railing is perfectly incorporated into your terrace, with no visible profile.
Lateral installation
With this method, the glass railing system is attached directly to the existing structure. This system is perfectly suited to a staircase, balcony or terrace.
French-style installation
The French installation method for your aluminum and glass balustrade involves fixing the rail directly to the ground, whether on concrete or other substrates. The advantage of this method lies in its simplicity and speed of installation, offering a practical solution for effectively securing your space.
NB: To optimally accommodate a glass guardrail profile, it is recommended to have at least 30 cm of stringboard thickness. This margin provides a solid, stable base for secure installation, guaranteeing the strength and durability of your glass guardrail.
