GLASS • FACE-FIXED • NON-PROJECTING
Juliet balconies are a clean and practical solution for upper-floor doors and full-height windows, helping maximise natural light while providing a modern architectural finish. Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, aluminium and glass components, our systems are designed for long-term outdoor durability across residential and commercial applications.
8MM WIRE • 90MM CENTRES • POST-MOUNTED
A vertical wire/bar balustrade is a great way to create a clean, modern finish in both residential and commercial spaces. Combining durable wire/bar with stainless steel posts, our systems are designed to suit a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications. From patios and decking to larger commercial projects, the modular design makes installation simple while allowing flexibility across different layouts, gradients and surfaces.
BASE OR SIDE-FIXED • POST-MOUNTED
Horizontal wire balcony systems may not be compliant depending on the building use. Please contact us for advice. These systems combine stainless steel posts with sleek horizontal wire rope infill for a clean architectural finish. Designed for a wide range of projects, the system creates a modern open feel while maintaining strength, durability and low-maintenance performance for indoor and outdoor applications.
GLASS • FRAMELESS • BASE-MOUNTED
Stainless steel glass modular systems are often the perfect compliant solution for balconies. Glass balcony systems create a sleek contemporary finish while maximising natural light and visibility. Combining toughened glass with premium-grade stainless steel components, the system is designed for residential and commercial balcony projects where clean sightlines and a modern architectural appearance are a priority. Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, glass balconies offer long-term durability with minimal maintenance.

Every balcony balustrade system we supply is designed in line with your project. Depending on the height drop and other project-specific elements, we will ensure your system meets Approved Document K and BS 6180 where applicable. From guarding heights and structural loading to fixing methods and material durability, our systems are engineered to provide safe, compliant and long-lasting protection for raised outdoor areas.
External balconies and raised terraces typically require guarding at a minimum height of 1100mm above finished floor level.
Openings within balcony balustrades must prevent a 100mm sphere passing through for improved safety compliance.
Balcony systems should use corrosion-resistant materials suitable for long-term external and coastal environments.
Balcony balustrade systems must withstand horizontal loads in line with BS 6180 requirements.
