Benefits of Using Glass Balustrade for Home

When it came to balustrades, wood and metal were the two popular options. Gone are those days as now the glass balustrades are becoming increasingly popular. They are used by people for their decks, balconies, verandahs, stairs, swimming pools and other areas in and outside of the house. There are many advantages of using them – both the visual and functional.

Classy appearance

When people look at your house they get an idea about your taste, preferences and lifestyle. This is the reason why people are so conscious when they design their home interior.

Glass is amongst the most popular materials since it adds to the elegance and grace of your home. If you are re-designing you home, just the addition of beautiful glass made balustrades will alter the look of your home dramatically.

Glass Balustrade in Stairs

Easy maintenance and durability

Unlike other types of balustrades, those made of glass do not need any routine maintenance, making it ideal to be used both indoors and outdoors. You can clean the balustrade using a regular window cleaning detergent and your glass balustrade will remain clean and shiny.

Moreover, the fittings or postings that hold the glass balustrade in place are designed from materials that do not corrode, like powder coated aluminum or marine grade stainless steel, making them highly durable.

Safety

Apart from being attractive, balustrades made of glass are very safe since they are made out of thick tempered glass, which (almost) can’t break. In the rarest of occasions it does break, it doesn’t break off into small sharp pieces. This makes it safe, particularly in those areas in which children are regularly present.

Glass Balustrade

Illusion of space

The glass crafted balustrades, once they are installed, offer an illusion of space. The mild reflection that comes from glass makes any area appear larger. Your home is going to appear more spacious than it actually is which is always welcome.

Beautiful View of Garden

More daylight

A very big benefit of glass balustrades is that they do not block light. Light in fact passes through it making your home look properly lit, lively and attractive.

Terrace View
