Glass balustrades BUY WITHOUT THE HASSLE Paul Smith, Head of Marketing at F.H. Brundle, explores the rise of glass balustrades and explains how F.H. Brundle can make designing them quicker and easier than ever. If I asked you to picture what the average ‘70s home looked like inside, I think you’d instantly have a very clear image in your head. F.H Brundle offers a comprehensive range of glass balustrades The same would be the case if it was the ‘80s or the ‘90s – each decade had its own distinctive style when it came to home and garden décor, with key features all of us who were around at the time can remember. So what are the standout features of the design of the 2020s? There are obviously several. But one of the biggest has to be glass – lots of glass. That’s in no small part why there’s been such a surge of interest in glass balustrades. Why do people like glass? Because it’s stylish, easily maintained, brings a sense of airiness and space, and, most of all, lets in natural light and makes the most of scenic views. And why do people like glass balustrades? Because they take the sort of practical, opaque barriers that traditionally blocked out the light and the views and makes them transparent. A versatile range Their soaring popularity in recent decades has seen F.H. Brundle supply a growing range of outstanding balustrade products, suitable for a huge array of different projects and properties, as well as budgets. Pre-assembled post ranges include Timeless with a handrail and Contemplation without a handrail, both of which come with glass clamps and base plates already fitted to save valuable installation time. Also available are posts for wire rope and crossbar holders. Posts are available to bolt down, concrete-in and side fix to cover all installation requirements, which are available in stainless steel grades 304 and 316 satin finish and mirror polished finish ideal for coastal locations. With 10mm thickness standard glass panels available from stock, in 100mm increments up to 1100mm width, your installations couldn’t be quicker, easier or more costeffective. If you are looking for a glass balustrade that offers uninterrupted views, then look no further than our range of outstanding frameless glass balustrade systems, including Wedge-Loc, Tilt- Loc and Posi-Glaze, providing spectacular results every time. They are quick to install and available as base or side fix options. Finishes are satin anodised, PPC black or a mill finish to powder coat to a colour of your choice. There is also a choice of easy-to-fit glass spigots, supplied in aluminium or Duplex 2205 (ultramarine stainless), and glass stand-off adaptors, a discrete and simple way of holding glass panels in place whilst offering a contemporary touch of elegance to glass balustrades, railings or staircases. These are available in a satin or mirror finish and now also PPC matt black. 12mm thickness standard glass panels for our frameless glass balustrades are available from stock, in 100mm increments up to 1200mm width.
