Glass Handrails

Glass Handrails

Frameless and semi-framed glass balustrades engineered for clear sightlines.

OVERVIEW

Glass Handrails by Eizen Steel

A glass balustrade should disappear. We build the part you do not see — the base channel, the spigots, the anchor pattern and the stainless capping — so the glass reads as a single uninterrupted plane from the first floor to the roof terrace.

Every run is set out from a site survey rather than a nominal drawing dimension. Panel widths, expansion gaps and post centres are fixed against the poured slab as built, which is what keeps a long balcony run reading straight instead of stepping panel by panel.

SCOPE OF WORK

What We Deliver

Structural base channels

Aluminium and stainless channels grouted or bolted to the slab, set out to take the design line load without visible support.

Toughened laminated glass

Heat-soaked toughened laminated panels so the balustrade stays in place and retained even if a pane is impacted.

Point-fixed spigot systems

Polished or satin stainless spigots for pool surrounds and terraces where a fully open edge is wanted.

Stainless & aluminium capping

Slimline top rails in SS304, SS316 or powder-coated aluminium, mitred and welded at corners rather than jointed.

Site survey & setting out

Laser survey of the finished slab before fabrication so panel sizes and gaps match the building, not the drawing.

Sealing & final finishing

Structural silicone, gasket packing and edge polishing carried out on site as part of the handover.

ANSWERS

Glass Handrails — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a frameless glass balustrade cost in Dubai?

Price is driven by glass thickness, the fixing system and the top rail. A channel-fixed 12mm toughened run is very different from a 17.5mm laminated spigot-fixed pool edge. Send the balcony or stair dimensions and the level difference and we will price the options side by side.

What glass do you use for balconies and pool edges?

Heat-soaked toughened laminated glass, typically 10-19mm depending on the design line load and the drop below. Laminating matters: if a pane is impacted, the interlayer holds it in place instead of leaving the edge open.

Can you fix glass balustrades without visible posts?

Yes. We use grouted or bolted structural base channels and point-fixed stainless spigots, both of which carry the load with no post above floor level. The channel anchor pattern is set out against the poured slab as built.

Glass Handrails across the United Arab Emirates

We fabricate glass handrails in our own workshop and install with our own crews, so a site in Abu Dhabi or Ras Al Khaimah gets the same survey, the same shop drawings and the same finish as a site in Dubai.

Have drawings for a glass handrails package?
