Glass balustrades à l'Anglaise, reliable protection for your building

In the world of securing residential and commercial spaces, the installation of glass balustrades is a remarkable innovation. Characterized by lateral fastenings on the edge of the surface, this process ensures complete transparency and an unobstructed view. Whether applied to staircases, terraces or balconies, the English method is synonymous with a perfect harmony between optimum safety and refined design.

Explore the possibilities offered by Made-in-glass.com systems, rigorously compliant with standards, to transform your space while guaranteeing unwavering safety.

WHAT IS AN ANGLE-POSED GLASS GUARD and what are its advantages?

The English-style glass railing is distinguished by an innovative installation method that departs from traditional ground installation. Unlike conventional fencing, which rests directly on the ground and derives its stability from the solidity of this base, English-style fastening attaches to the building's facade. The fastening panels are applied laterally to the slab, aligning precisely with the height of the glass panels. This particular approach gives the English-style glass railing a unique, modern character, making it a smart choice for those seeking a distinctive, elegant element.

This protective device offers multiple advantages. It maximizes available space, as its fixings do not extend into the living area. What's more, it preserves an unobstructed view and maximizes the entry of natural light, thanks to fixings that are virtually undetectable from the outside.

The installation of this type of system requires specialized expertise to ensure a secure, long-lasting fit. Fixing systems must be robust and specifically selected to meet the unique requirements of each project, guaranteeing the stability of glass panels while preserving their clarity and aesthetic beauty.

Compliance with guidelines for the Compliant Installation of Balustrades

To ensure safety and compliance with current standards, it's crucial to follow the prescribed dimensions for the installation of glass balustrades. Measurements vary according to location:

- For stairs, a minimum height of 90 cm is required;

- For landings and mezzanines, the height must be at least 1 meter;

- For balconies or terraces above ground level, the standard height is 1 metre, with certain exceptions allowing 80 cm.

- For first-floor windows with no balcony or terrace and a sill height of less than 0.90 m, a grab bar and a protective device at least 1 m high are essential.

These guidelines are essential to protect people from falls and ensure that buildings comply with safety regulations.

The different ways of installing a glass balustrade

The "à l'Anglaise" method relies essentially on the strength of the fasteners that hold the structure to the façade. These also define the aesthetics of the glass balustrade. Made-in-glass.com offers you three reliable solutions that will add a touch of style to your building.

Surface-mounted mounting plate

The traditional technique for installing a surface-mounted balustrade is to use English-style mounting plates. Diversified to meet a wide range of needs, these plates come in several models: screw-on or clamp-on, with internal or external angles, they offer optimum adaptability to each specific configuration. They also come in a variety of aesthetic shapes - round, square, rectangular or oval - allowing you to personalize the design according to your preferences. Whichever you choose, these plates guarantee solid, long-lasting attachment of your guardrail posts.

Aluminum profile

The glass profile guardrail stands out for its innovative design, which departs from classic models with posts. In this version, the glass is supported only from below by a discreet profile, eliminating the need for vertical posts. When fixed in the English style, the profile is mounted laterally, accentuating the sleek, modern look of the whole. This minimalist design makes the fasteners invisible, offering total transparency and stunning aesthetics. Perfect for outdoor terraces, this railing combines optimum safety with contemporary style, while preserving the panoramic view.

English-style glass clamp

For surface-mounted railings, opt for the English-style glass clamp. With its rectangular silhouette, this clamp is available in brushed aluminum or in the RAL 7016 color, harmonizing with a variety of aesthetics. It's easy to install on the surface of your terrace or on the stringer of your staircase, ensuring that the glass is held securely by its very presence. Although it requires precise drilling of the glass, this fixing method is prized for its elegant, long-lasting appearance.
