kaye Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 any one got any recommendations for sensibly priced frameless glass balustrades for juliet balconies? I am needing to provide the fixings for my timber frame design and haven't a scooby on the best companies so I can gain the technical info. I was hoping to put off this decision for a while and unsure if the fixings are fairly standard across suppliers or specific? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Punter Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Have a look at https://www.balustradeglass.co.uk/product/glass-juliette-balcony/, decide what you need, then shop around for prices. Simplest is fixing to brickwork / blockwork but you can also fix to timber frame or even the door frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Punter Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 No first hit on google and they seem to have technical info and prices online, so work out what you want and possibly shop around. It is only glass, not magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Old thread with a few names. Companies tend to do both internal and external. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My staircase manufacturer said he uses Tuff x and told me to try them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitpipe Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I recommended Elite on the original thread - just to say they ceased trading last year but look to have emerged pheonix like from the ashes as a supply only company.? I was more or less done and their work was decent but one piece of external glass was not correct - was able to claim back from the credit card firm and planning to get it sorted at some stage. The independent fitter they used was great and was left high and dry when they folded. I'm using him to do the replacement work - he's based up north but travels length and breadth of UK. When we designed the house, I made no allowance for the balconies so needed to go for a system that used an aluminium deck on top of the GRP roof with the glass attached to that. I'd expect that if you provide a generous area of load bearing brick / timber in the area where the balcony will be fitted, you'll be fine.

HerbJ Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 There was another thread, to which contributed. I used a local glazing company for supply and install - see full thread below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
