Bring light, safety and a refined, minimalist look to your home with bespoke glass balustrades from GSL. Designed for everyday living, our systems enhance balconies, roof terraces, staircases and Juliet balconies while keeping views open and maintenance low. We survey, design, fabricate and install made-to-measure solutions that integrate cleanly with your architecture and comply with UK regulations—delivering a finish that’s beautiful, durable and safe for family use.
Enjoy the view without bulky frames. Our balcony and roof-terrace balustrades use robust glass build-ups and discreet channels or posts to maximise sightlines while providing dependable protection at height. For exposed or coastal locations, we advise on glass type, interlayers and fixing methods to handle wind loading and everyday wear. Handrail options include minimalist cappings or continuous rails for a classic touch, all engineered for long-term performance and simple cleaning.
Open up hallways and living spaces with clear, contemporary lines. Frameless or slim-post systems keep circulation areas bright, reduce visual clutter and pair effortlessly with timber or metal handrails. We tailor glass thickness, edge finishing and fixing details to your substrate and layout—whether retrofitting to existing stairs or delivering a fully new installation—so you get a safe, rigid feel with a calm, modern aesthetic.
Add safe, elegant openings to upper-floor doors with custom Juliet balconies. Our designs secure directly to the façade or within discreet side channels, keeping the look light while meeting barrier requirements. Choose clear, tinted or low-iron glass and a choice of minimalist cappings or no visible handrail at all. Each unit is sized to your aperture for a seamless, engineered fit that preserves natural light and external views.
We offer toughened and laminated toughened glass in popular residential build-ups, with options for low-iron clarity, subtle tints and privacy etching. Edges can be polished, arrised or mitred to suit your detailing. Fixings range from fully recessed base channels for a frameless look to slim stainless-steel posts with point fixings; where preferred, we can integrate top cappings or continuous handrails in stainless steel or timber. Hardware is specified in suitable grades for interior or exterior settings, and powder-coated finishes are available to match surrounding frames. Every specification balances aesthetics, safety, maintenance and cost so you get the right solution for your home and location.
Your safety is our priority. All residential balustrades are designed to align with Approved Document K and BS 6180 guidance for protective barriers. During survey and design, we confirm heights, load classes and infill performance appropriate to your setting (internal stairs, external balconies, roof terraces) and produce drawings for approval. We coordinate with your architect or builder, provide method statements and liaise with Building Control where required so compliance is clear and sign-off is straightforward.
