Balconette’s new range of Frameless Glass Juliet balconies have been designed to provide a minimalist guarding solution for architects, developers and specifiers.
The Frameless Juliet systems form part of Balconette’s existing range of aluminium and straight and curved glass balustrades. The company also offers a number of different Juliet balconies, with a choice of handrail styles and finishes.
The company’s latest design utilises 21.5mm laminated and toughened glass panels, which allows for a Frameless Juliet of up to 3.15m in width using a single pane of glass.
Balconette also offers seven standard sizes, ranging from 1,280mm to 2,840mm; custom sizes are available on request.
By fitting support profiles to the walls either side of the aperture, the system can be easily installed. The profiles allow tolerances for installation; previously, accurate drilling was required for glass with pre-drilled holes.
Developers such as Rectory Homes have benefited from the new balconies. Rectory has specified the system for installation in two multi-million detached properties, based near Oxford city centre.
Supplied and installed by Balconette, the Frameless systems complement the aesthetics of the contemporary properties.
The latest Builders Merchant Building Index (BMBI) report shows builders’ merchants’ value sales in October were up +1.2% compared to the same month last year.
