Balustrade.

That depends on your construction and the available space. With floor mounting (top mounting), you screw the aluminum floor profile on top of the finished floor or construction beam — the most chosen and stable option if you have enough floor space. With side mounting (end mounting), you attach the profile to the side of the floor edge or void, so that you do not lose any valuable centimeters and the glass runs optically smoothly along the edge.

Skyforce is a certified, virtually invisible mounting system especially for French balconies. Instead of a large fence, mount two slim aluminum profiles on the left and right of the frame or facade and clamp a strong glass plate between them. The result is a super-safe drop-through screen that does not block the view or light from entering.

That depends on the look and the load-bearing construction. Glass clamps are clamped around the edge of the glass and often mounted on existing metal or wooden posts (there are variants for indoors and outdoors); Drilling into the glass is usually not necessary, which makes installation easier. Point holders (glass knobs) go straight through the glass via pre-drilled holes and can be mounted flush against a concrete edge or steel sidewall - this gives an extremely sleek, minimalist look where the window appears to float.

Legally, a glass balustrade does not always have to have a handrail, as long as the glass itself is strong enough to absorb the forces (depending on the thickness and type of laminated/tempered glass). However, we often recommend a handrail or handrail: it protects the top edge against impacts, connects several glass panes together for extra strength and keeps greasy fingers off the glass.

The right skills and professional installation tools can go a long way, but keep in mind that balustrade glass (laminated tempered glass) is thick and heavy. You always need strong glass vacuum cleaners and a few extra hands for installation. The most important thing is the anchoring of the profiles or clamps in the substrate: always use the prescribed structural screws or chemical anchors. Safety comes first here.
