Stair railings
Glass along flights and landings — frameless, point-fixed or with posts and a handrail.
Glass railings
Glass railings made to measure
Railings for stairs, balconies, terraces and pools on German-engineered systems: frameless glass in a base channel, point-fixed glass, post-mounted railings with a handrail and French balconies. Laminated safety glass only.
Space Glass
Safety that keeps the view open
A glass railing protects against falls, wind and level differences but keeps the view and the light. That is why it is used on stairs and galleries, balconies, terraces and around pools.
We work with German-engineered railing systems: base channels fixed on top of or to the edge of the slab, point fixings, stainless steel posts and French balconies. The profiles and holders are tested for horizontal loads of up to 3 kN/m depending on the system.
Every railing uses laminated glass from two toughened sheets: if one sheet breaks, the railing stays in place.

Glass
Glass for railings
Only laminated safety glass is used in railings.
- Laminated 17.52 and 21.52 mm
- Two toughened sheets of 8 or 10 mm with a strong interlayer — for frameless channel systems and point fixings.
- Laminated 8.76 and 12.76 mm
- Two sheets of 4 or 6 mm — for post-mounted railings where clamps hold the glass on both sides.
- Glass colour
- Clear, low-iron (no green tint), grey and dark grey.
- Frosting and coatings
- Full or partial frosting for privacy and an easy-clean coating that repels dirt and water.
Benefits
Why a glass railing
Glass does not block the landscape, the garden or the interior.
Laminated glass only: if one sheet breaks, the railing stays in place.
Profiles, posts and holders tested for loads of up to 3 kN/m.
Nothing to paint; aluminium and stainless steel do not rust.
On terraces and balconies the glass breaks draughts and noise.
Any length and shape — straight, L or U, corners and level changes.

Where we work
Site surveys and installation in Kyiv, Odesa and Lviv
Our teams carry out site surveys, manufacturing and installation in Kyiv, Odesa and Lviv and the surrounding regions. Projects elsewhere in Ukraine are agreed individually.
Selected products and structures can be delivered to other European countries — send us your drawings or photos and the location, and we will tell you what can be supplied and how.
FAQ
Glass railings: FAQ
Systems, glass, height, loads and installation.
What types of glass railings are there?
Frameless railings in a base channel (glass held from below), point-fixed glass (holders on the slab edge), post-mounted railings with a handrail and French balconies.
What glass is used?
Only laminated glass: 17.52 or 21.52 mm for frameless systems and 8.76 or 12.76 mm for post-mounted railings.
How high should a railing be?
Typically from 0.9 m on stairs and 1.0–1.1 m on balconies and terraces. Frameless channels hold glass up to 1.3 m high. We check the height against the building regulations that apply to your site.
Is a railing without posts safe?
Yes. The channel clamps the glass along its full length and is designed for horizontal loads of 1–3 kN/m depending on the system.
What is a French balcony?
A glass railing in the opening of a floor-to-ceiling window: the window can be opened while the glass prevents falls. It is fixed to the window frame or to the reveals.
Is glass suitable around a pool?
Yes. We recommend a height of at least 1.2 m and AISI 316 stainless steel hardware; a glass gate with a closer can be added.
Can the profile match the facade colour?
Yes: stainless steel look, black, anthracite, white or any RAL colour.
Is a handrail necessary?
For frameless railings it is optional but protects the glass edge and gives support. On post-mounted railings the handrail is part of the system.
Does the glass withstand frost and sun?
Yes. Toughened laminated glass is not affected by temperature changes, and the interlayer protects against UV.
How long does manufacturing take?
Up to 20 working days after all details of the project are approved: glass and profiles are made to your dimensions.
