We supply and install bespoke glass balustrades in London and surrounding areas for both residential and commercial properties. Our systems are engineered for safety, durability, and a clean modern finish, suitable for interior and exterior applications.
Glass balustrades are a practical solution where safety is required without compromising light or visibility. They are commonly used for staircases, balconies, and terraces, offering a strong, low-maintenance alternative to traditional materials.
At PAR Glass, we manufacture and install glass balustrades tailored to each project. Every system is designed to meet the specific requirements of the space while maintaining a consistent, high-quality finish.

We use toughened and laminated safety glass depending on project requirements.
Glass thickness for balustrades typically ranges from 10mm to 21.5mm laminated options. However, additional sheets of glass can also be laminated together to achieve greater thickness where additional strength or specification requirements are needed. Laminated glass is used where additional safety is required, as it remains bonded even when shattered, thanks to the interlayer.
All materials are carefully selected to ensure strength, durability, and compliance with relevant UK safety standards.
We offer a range of systems designed to suit different styles, structural requirements, and applications:

We offer a range of installation methods to suit different project requirements, including base-mounted and side-mounted channel systems for a clean, frameless appearance. In addition, we provide bolt-fixed and clamp systems, with the option of incorporating stainless steel posts where required. The most suitable solution will depend on your design preferences, structural considerations, and desired finish.
We offer a wide range of glass types and thicknesses to suit different project requirements, including single toughened glass and laminated safety glass. The most suitable option will depend on the application, structural requirements, and compliance with relevant regulations. Our team can advise on the best specification to ensure both safety and performance.
A base-mounted system is fixed into the floor or decking, creating a clean and minimal look from the front. A side-mounted system is fixed to the vertical face of a balcony or staircase, maximising usable floor space and enhancing the frameless appearance.
Frameless systems are designed to minimise visible fixings and achieve a clean, modern appearance. Depending on the system used, fittings such as channels, bolts, or clamps are usually visible. However, where site conditions allow, these fittings can often be recessed into the structure to create a more seamless and fully frameless finish.
Privacy can be achieved by using frosted or tinted glass finishes. These options maintain light flow while reducing visibility, making them ideal for overlooked areas or residential settings.
We use toughened and laminated safety glass in our balustrades. If toughened glass breaks, it shatters into small, blunt fragments rather than sharp shards, reducing the risk of injury. In laminated glass, the interlayer holds the glass in place, preventing it from separating into loose pieces and maintaining a level of safety until replacement.
Yes, frameless glass balustrades are designed to meet strict safety standards and are perfectly suitable for environments with children and pets. We use toughened and laminated safety glass, which is highly durable and impact resistant. In the unlikely event of breakage, the laminated interlayer helps hold the glass in place, maintaining a barrier. Additionally, frameless systems have no large gaps, sharp edges, or climbable horizontal elements, reducing the risk of accidents and making them a safe and practical choice for residential use.
Yes, frameless glass balustrades are suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including staircases, balconies, terraces, and garden areas. They are designed to withstand a variety of environmental conditions.
Standard clear glass can have a slight green tint, mostly visible on the edge of the glass, due to its iron content. For a clearer, more neutral appearance, we offer low-iron glass, which significantly reduces this tint and provides a more premium finish.
In some cases, a handrail may be required to comply with UK building regulations, depending on the installation method, location, and intended use of the balustrade. In public or high-traffic areas, a handrail is often recommended for additional safety and support. Requirements can vary based on the specific regulations applicable to your building and its purpose, so this should be confirmed with your engineer or project designer. Our team is always happy to advise on suitable options to ensure your balustrade is both compliant and visually appealing.
