Stainless Steel Balustrade with Glass

The Eton Range of Glass Balustrades with Stainless Steel Posts

Stainless Steel Posts and fittings come in two qualities. 304 Grade stainless steel is suitable for most ordinary internal and external uses, and 316 Marine Grade is recommended for outside areas within 5 miles of the sea or around swimming pools. Our ETON Solid Glass Balustrades are available with either a Stainless Steel or hardwood handrail. Eton balustrades are easy to assemble.

The stainless steel posts and rails are available in either a 42.4mm diameter or 48.3mm. The 42.4mm diameter posts are most suitable for balustrading with a total length under 15 metres. Larger decks should use posts and rails with a 48.3mm diameter. This is recommended both for strength and appearance.

For a Decking Balustrade over 600mm from the ground, consult with a reputable builder or structural engineer.

Assembly Instructions for Eton Glass Balustrades

1. The posts and handrail will be supplied to you pre-drilled. It is therefore necessary to tell us

a) The width of the glass that you require for each section. The width of glass is 50mm less that the distance between the posts. (This allows a 25mm gap between the glass and the post. This gap is required for the glass clamp.)

b) The height of the glass you require for each section. We need to know both the height you require and the distance of the glass from the deck. (This is required so that we can drill the hole in the posts for the clamps, such that if the glass were to slip, it would be supported by the top clamp.)

c) The overall height of the Balustrade. (This will allow us to cut the stainless steel posts to the correct height).

d) The width between the CENTRES of the posts for each section. The maximum distance between the posts should be 1.6m if there is a handrail, or 1.4m if no handrail.

e) A sketch of the whole Balustrade. We are unable to supply fittings for glass that over hangs the decking.

PLEASE EITHER FAX THIS INFORMATION on 01628 522 541 or email on jjanmoorhouse@btconnect.com.

This will allow us to quote a price to you, either for the stainless steel alone, or for both the glass and the stainless steel.

2. The glass and the Stainless Steel Posts and Fittings will arrive separately. You should allow around 3 weeks for the receipt of the glass as it is cut to your size and then tempered.

3. When glass and stainless steel has arrived, first erect the Stainless Steel Posts.

4. Remove the lugs from the glass clamps. These lugs are not required unless the glass over hangs the decking. In the event of the glass slipping, it will only slip to the deck level.

5. Assemble the glass and Glass Clamps.

6. Glue and/or screw the rail and supports to the posts.
