Balcony Balustrade
An external glass balcony balustrade can be fixed using all available fixing systems. From semi-frameless using aluminium powdercoated posts through to a frameless system using all stainless hardware.
External glass balustrade can be mounted on spigots, channel fixed or face mounted. The fixing choice depends on budget and customer preference.
Curved Glass Balustrade
External curved glass balustrades is a glass fencing style that has dramatically increased in popularity over the last few years. This glass fencing style can be spigot mounted or recessed into an invisible channel to give that beautiful seamless look.
Absolut Custom Glass are the curved and bent glass experts and even though many of these projects can prove to be challenging and complicated, we never fail to deliver results that exceed all customer expectations.
Face Mount Glass Balustrade
Our face mounted glass balustrade uses either a pin fixed stand off system or the Smarter Spigot. Both options provide an impressive look from the balcony as the glass extends over the face of your deck or balcony and maximises space.
The Smarter Spigot is the only adjustable face mount spigot in Australia and is used exclusively by Absolut Custom Glass.
Channel Fix Glass Balustrade
There are a few options available when choosing an external channel fixed balustrade. The invisible channel fix system provides the illusion that the glass is not supported as it runs into a recessed channel. This is our most popular choice amongst our clients and provides a very modern and sophisticated look.
Our visible channel system is when the glass is supported by a visible top or face mounted aluminium channel. We use the Versatilt channel system for this application.
