About Glass Handrail Systems

Is a Glass Handrail a Good Fit For Your Space?

Glass handrails maintain an open and airy atmosphere without leaving any gaps for kids, pets, or items to fall through. They are particularly effective in spaces where natural light and unobstructed views are priorities. Consider glass handrails for your balcony, staircase, deck, or terrace. They work well both indoors and outdoors, and they can fit nicely with both traditional and contemporary homes and offices.

In commercial settings, glass handrails are a popular choice for offices, hotels, and shopping centers. These handrails always create a welcoming and upscale environment.

What Are Glass Handrails?

Glass handrails are created with tempered glass panels that are mounted between posts (or directly attached to a supporting structure). We often fabricate custom posts out of iron and other metals as well. The glass panels may be clear, frosted, or tinted, depending on your preference. The tempered glass is stronger than regular glass, and it’s designed to break into small, less dangerous pieces if hit with force.

Benefits of Glass Handrails

We’d be happy to chat with you about glass handrails on the phone, but we’ll include a few benefits here.

Glass handrails are undeniably striking. Whether you add them to an aluminum frame, wood imitation posts, or wrought iron fence, they are beautiful. They allow light into the deck, patio, or space, and they don’t block your view. They also look great in a number of architectural environments.

They are also easy to maintain. Wood needs to be stained and painted, vinyl may wear down, and mesh warps. Our glass handrails always look beautiful, and they may simply need a quick spray and wipe from time to time.

They are also versatile. They can work in commercial office space, or outdoors at your lake house - the use-cases are endless.

The Design and Fabrication Process

TADS Metalworking begins each glass handrail project with a detailed consultation to understand your specific needs. The design phase involves selecting the type of glass, the style of the posts and railing, and the overall configuration of the handrail system.

During the fabrication process, we pay close attention to detail, from the thickness of the glass to the finish on the metal. We guarantee that the final product will not only look great, but also perform well over time.

Because we do most of the work in our shop, the installation process usually goes fairly quickly. We’ll schedule a time to install the glass handrail, and be out of your way before you know it. We won’t leave until we are 100% confident in our workmanship.
