Materials count: choosing the right materials for your glass railing system

When it comes to construction, selecting the right materials is crucial to a project's success. It's essential that infill panels are made from safety glass, while fastening systems for glass railings must incorporate metal components that guarantee strength, durability and corrosion resistance. At Made-in-glass.com, we favor the use of aluminum and stainless steel for fasteners, offering a reliable, long-lasting solution. To add a touch of elegance, wood and certain polymers can be used, enriching aesthetics without compromising quality.

Glass and stainless steel railings

Made-in-glass.com is your destination for reliable, robust and durable glass railing solutions. Our systems incorporate premium materials, including SECURIT glass panels secured by 316 stainless steel, renowned for its strength and corrosion resistance. We offer a wide range of models to suit every need:

  • The continuous-profile railing is distinguished by its U-shaped metal profile, anchored to the ground, which elegantly supports the glass, highlighting the transparency and purity of the glass.
  • Our buttoned-glass balustrades, characterized by sheets of glass fastened by screws or knobs, require tempered glass to ensure safety and durability, given the drilling required.
  • The clip-on balustrade offers a sleek aesthetic with discreet metal fastenings, conferring maximum visibility and an impression of lightness.
  • The balustrade with steel posts consists of sturdy stainless steel mini-posts that firmly anchor the glass panels, guaranteeing optimum safety.

Glass and aluminum railings

Glass and aluminum balustrades are a relevant choice because of the multiple advantages they offer homeowners. They can be used to enclose staircases and support balconies and other spaces in virtually any type of structure, including residential and commercial.

In addition to blending easily with any style of home, this type of railing is easy to install and maintain. Aluminum is also much lighter than steel, making it much easier to transport and install.

Another advantage of glass and aluminum balustrades is that they resist corrosion, both glass and steel. This means they won't rust or corrode, even in extreme weather conditions. So, whether you live in a hot, humid climate or a cold, snowy one, your balustrades will always be as good as new!

Glass and wood balustrades

To infuse your living space with warmth and elegance, the combination of glass and wood is unsurpassed. These two materials blend perfectly, offering a perfect balance between visual beauty and solidity. At Made-in-glass.com, we prefer to use exotic woods in the manufacture of our glass handrails and balustrade frames, guaranteeing refined design and enhanced durability.

What's more, a special treatment is applied to the wood to preserve it from pests like termites and protect it from the vagaries of the weather, ensuring exceptional longevity for our creations.
