Benefits of Glass Balustrades
Used in many buildings, internally and externally balustrades support staircases, balconies, and provide safety and security. While various materials can be used to design a striking and functional balustrade, the glass balustrade has become extremely popular over the recent years, because of its countless benefits.
The frameless glass balustrade is particularly popular in modern architecture and interior design.
Here is a closer look at the excellent benefits a glass balustrade has to offer.
- One of the main reasons that glass elements are so popular in home design today is that they help to create the illusion of more space in the building. This is especially true if the balustrade is made with clear, see through glass. The illusion of more space makes the area appear even larger than it really is, which is something that cannot be achieved by using metal, chrome, or iron options.
- Glass balustrades are very popular because they have the benefit of not blocking the light in a building. Glass railings also allow for light to shine through, enhancing the presence of sunlight and also serving to create a more open, airy feel while indoors.
- One major benefit of installing glass balustrades is its ability to add a touch of modern sophistication to any building that it is fitted in. This will also be useful for you when you plan to sell your house as you will get a good amount of money during resale. This type of house beautification will attract too many buyers also.
- As well as looking wonderful, a glass balustrade is exceptionally robust. Your new installation will last for many years, and will require little or no maintenance.
- Glass balustrades provide great design versatility and the perfect accompaniment to any other materials which are included in your new installation. Wood, metal and stone may be used for the risers, handrails or banisters, and the addition of sizeable expanses of glass will complement the overall look. There’s also the option to use opaque or patterned glass or many colours, textures, and framing options.
What Is A Glass Balustrade?
A balustrade is the railing on a balcony, porch or terrace that can either be indoors or outdoors.
There are many buildings that make use of balustrades as a support to the staircase or balconies. Though these balustrades are made of different materials like wood, iron, stainless steel etc., choosing glass can be a great idea.
Though glass balustrades look graceful and blend with modern decorative, you can also be sure of added safety once these are installed. Its main purpose is to serve as a security addition for your balcony, stairways, swimming pools and many other areas.
When you install this type of glass balustrade for the stairs, elevated areas, or then use as a glass shower screen or glass door or around your pool area, you can enjoy it as a transparent border. The illusion created by the glass creates a perception of an open, fresh, and more expansive atmosphere throughout your home.
Another benefit of glass balustrades is that they are a great source of natural light. As light easily passes through the glass and doesn’t block the light in a building, many homeowners select this material to create the illusion of a well-lite space.
