What are the necessary Australian standards for glass fencing and balustrades?

Glass fencing standards state that the glass has to be 12mm thick. Pool fencing has to be at a minimum of 1200mm in height. Glass balustrades have to be 12mm thick and at least 1000mm in height. All must use toughened glass that meets Australian regulations.

Will you negotiate with local councils if it is required?

What type of glass is used in your glass structures?

We primarily use toughened, 12mm thick glass that has been polished all around.

What kind of maintenance will my glass structures require?

To maintain glass structures, we recommend applying glass cleaner or methylated spirits with a microfibre cloth. For cleaning the fittings, we recommend using a cream rejuvenator or cleaner, followed by a wipe-on clear sealer.

What happens if one of my glass structures breaks?

If one of your glass panels breaks, don’t stress. It’s easy to measure it up and replace it.

We offer a range of finishes, including clear glass and frosted glass, as well as an assortment of films for you to choose from.

On average, how long does a project take?

On average, pool fencing and balustrades will take a day or two to complete. However, stair balustrades require two to three weeks, as they require custom-made templates.

What surfaces can the structures be attached to?

Glass can be attached to many surfaces due to the range of stainless-steel hardware that we have available.
