Glass Options for
Frameless Glass Balustrades
TBK Metal’s frameless glass balustrades provide high-quality tempered and laminated glass products, with strength, safety, clarity, and architectural flexibility for modern building applications, residential, commercial, and high-performance.
Tempered Glass
Tempered glass has high strength, safety performance, and impact resistance. It breaks into small, blunt pieces, which are suitable for the frameless glass balustrade system used in residential and commercial architecture applications.
Laminated Glass
Laminated tempered glass technology is two-glass layers joined by an interlayer film that provides superior safety, sound, and security properties. Will not break if broken, maintaining protection in architectural balustrade applications.
Accessories & System Components
Our frameless glass railing systems include accessories such as end caps, top railings, gaskets, inlay, wedge, and anchor bolts, ensuring precise installation, structural integrity, water management, and refined architectural finishing details.
