Glass Balustrades and Railings
Safety you can see through.
Frameless and semi-framed toughened glass balustrades for stairs, balconies, terraces and pool surrounds.

The barrier that keeps the view.
A balustrade keeps people safe at an edge. Glass does that while leaving sightlines open, so stairs, balconies and terraces still feel light.
Impala Glass supplies the toughened glass and Impala Fabricators handles the aluminium, so the barrier is coordinated from specification to installation.
Fixing Options
Frameless or semi-framed
Both use toughened glass. The difference is how the panel is held and what you see.
01
Frameless
Glass held at the base by a channel or spigots, with no rail above. The most open sightline.
- Base channel
- Spigots
- Toughened glass
02
Semi-Framed
Toughened glass finished with a slim aluminium top rail, giving a continuous handrail line.
- Slim top rail
- Toughened glass
