GLASS/PANEL INFILL · AISI304/AISI316 · COASTAL GRADE
A balustrade system built specifically to reduce wind exposure for coastal or outdoor spaces without blocking the view or the light. Glass or solid panel infill within a stainless post frame, sized and positioned to act as a wind break where it’s needed most.
HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE · NO VISIBLE TOP RAIL · WIND PROTECTION
The original height-adjustable glass balustrade. A simple press raises the upper glass panel to create instant wind protection — lower it just as easily when the weather improves. Designed and manufactured in Sweden by ErgoSafe, ClickitUp combines glass, aluminium and structural glazing bonding with no visible posts or fixings. Design-protected since 2014. Available for ground-level patios, balconies and as a retrofit inside existing railings.
STAINLESS/MILD STEEL · PUNCHED PANEL · CUSTOM PATTERNS
Stainless or mild steel panels with a punched perforation pattern, set within SWR’s standard modular post frame. Perforation patterns available in a range of open areas depending on the level of screening required. Powder coat finish available across the full RAL range.
SOLID/SEMI-SOLID INFILL · AISI304/AISI316 · PRIVACY GRADE
Obscure glass to create privacy for both residential and commercial needs. The panels are attached to our modular stainless steel system which can be produced to bespoke dimensions depending on the project requirements.

Yes. The system is versatile enough to function as a room partition as well as an exterior wind protection system — its slim-line, elegant design makes it suitable for interior commercial and domestic applications. Glass height and finish can be specified to suit the interior design requirements of the space.
The system uses toughened, and toughened and laminated safety glass. Laminated glass is the correct specification for wind shield applications as it remains in place if broken, unlike single-pane toughened glass.
