Glass railing applications
Glass railings work wherever you want an open view without giving up safety. We handle the layout, hardware, and tempered glass together.
Stair railings
Interior stair runs with glass panels set in base shoes, standoff brackets, or a continuous top rail. We measure each tread and landing so the glass follows the pitch of the stairs and meets code height requirements.
Balcony railings
Upper-level balconies, lofts, and mezzanines where you want an unobstructed view. Tempered glass panels with a handrail or cap rail on top, anchored to the floor or fascia. We confirm load requirements and panel spacing before ordering.
How it works
Three steps from first photo to finished railing.
We measure on site
Stair angles, post locations, and floor conditions all affect the glass layout. We come out, take field measurements, and confirm hardware before anything is ordered.

Glass railing questions
Is tempered glass required for railings?
Yes. Building code requires tempered safety glass for railing infill panels. All glass we supply for stair and balcony railings is tempered and marked accordingly.
Can glass railings be added to an existing staircase?
In most cases, yes. We need to see the stair structure — wood, concrete, or steel — and how the current railing is attached. Send photos of the full run so we can tell you what hardware will work.
Do glass railings need a top rail?
It depends on the system and local code. Some clamp and standoff systems require a continuous handrail on top of the glass. Base-shoe systems often use a cap rail. We will specify what your layout needs when we quote.
How do I clean glass railing panels?
Warm water and a soft cloth or squeegee works for day-to-day cleaning. Avoid abrasive pads on the glass. The hardware is typically stainless steel or powder-coated aluminum — wipe down with a damp cloth to keep it looking clean.
