Spring is here and if you’re thinking about building a new deck, here is one fantastic idea to consider: frameless glass railing!

So what’s all the hubbub about glass railing? Why is it showing up more and more in the neighborhood? What do your neighbours know that you don’t?

Well, there are several advantages to frameless glass deck railing. Let’s go over them.

Advantages of frameless glass deck railing

• Modern look
• Unobstructed view
• Strong and durable, lasts for decades
• Safer for children and pets
• Maintenance-free

Firstly, and maybe most noticeably is the modern look. Glass has a natural, timeless beauty meaning it instantly integrates with, and even elevates its surroundings. It is elegant and functional at the same time.

Secondly, it allows for an unobstructed view, making your deck and yard feel more airy and large. You can still see children and pets playing in the yard, plus you can appreciate the natural landscaping around you.

Thirdly, glass deck railing systems are made of tempered glass, which is incredibly strong and durable. Glass is the longest-lasting decking material, which complements perfectly with its timeless aesthetic.

Fourthly, it’s safer for children and pets. There are no slats for children to climb or pets to squeeze between. The unobstructed view eliminates the need to climb to see anything in the first place.

Lastly, it’s maintenance-free. All fasteners are made from stainless steel. There’s nothing to rot or warp.
