Safety and style, the glass guardrail has it all!
You’ve invested in a beautiful staircase, you have a magnificent view of your pool, or from your balcony? Of course, these spaces need to be secured with a guardrail—but why choose one that would spoil the view? Sturdy and transparent, choose a glass railing!
Premium-quality glass that is 100% reliable
The types of glass used to ensure people’s safety are specially designed. The most common are tempered and laminated glass. They are called “safety glass” and stand out in the glass industry for their strength. They offer essential advantages when used as guardrails, glass walls or floor panels, indoors and outdoors, including:
- strength against impacts,
- resistance to the elements and temperature variations,
- resistance to corrosion and rust,
- a structure that disintegrates without causing injury in the event of breakage…
Tempered glass does indeed shatter into a multitude of harmless little pieces, while laminated glass is held together by its inner film, which prevents any sharp pieces from breaking away. For example, tempered glass is used in bus shelters, while laminated glass is used in automobile windshields.
A universally sleek and modern design
Transparent or patterned, glass offers an abundance of options. Favoured by architects and interior designers, it lets in the highly sought-after natural light and also ensures that the view of the element it protects remains unobstructed.
In short, adding glass features to an interior or exterior is a real asset in both residential and commercial settings. For an optimal finish and a custom result, call on the Vitrerie Justalex professionals!
