Frameless glass fencing has become the Gold Coast’s preferred choice for homeowners who want a modern, elegant and unobtrusive way to secure their pool area or elevate their property’s outdoor aesthetic. At Absolut Custom Glass Systems, we have spent almost 30 years designing and installing premium frameless glass pool fencing and balustrades across the Gold Coast, helping homeowners achieve a seamless combination of style, safety and long-term durability.
Unlike traditional timber, aluminium or metal fencing that blocks your view and dominates the landscape, frameless glass fencing creates a clean architectural look that enhances your pool area and allows uninterrupted views of the sparkling water. Whether you’re renovating or building a new home, frameless glass fencing is the ultimate way to add value, beauty and safety without compromise.
Our fencing systems comply with all relevant Queensland pool safety regulations, and our expert team — led by owner Jason Walsh — ensures every project is designed, installed and certified with precision. From invisible channel fixing to premium face-mounted systems, spigot-mounted glass, bent and curved glass, and internal or external balustrades, Absolut delivers a level of workmanship that stands out across the region.
Why Choose Frameless Glass Fencing?
Frameless glass fencing is more than just a stylish choice — it’s a practical, safe and long-lasting solution engineered for Gold Coast conditions. Here’s why more homeowners are choosing Absolut’s frameless systems:
✔ Unobstructed Views
A frameless glass fence blends perfectly with any architectural style. The transparency of 12mm toughened glass creates a seamless visual flow, making the pool area feel larger, more open and more connected to the outdoors.
✔ Superior Safety & Compliance
All of our fencing systems comply with Queensland pool safety laws. The transparency of the panels allows you to supervise children easily, and the precision-engineered gaps prevent young children from climbing or becoming trapped. Every installation is certified by qualified inspectors to ensure full compliance.
✔ Durability in Coastal Conditions
The Gold Coast’s coastal environment demands materials that withstand moisture, heat and salt exposure. Our toughened safety glass panels are corrosion-proof, weather-resistant and built to last decades with minimal maintenance. Paired with 316L or 2205 duplex stainless steel hardware, your fence maintains structural integrity even in harsh conditions.
✔ Easy Maintenance
Unlike timber or metal, glass does not rot, warp or corrode. It requires minimal cleaning and maintains its appearance year-round. All panels are stain-resistant and easy to wipe down, making them a practical long-term investment.
✔ Adds Value to Your Property
A professionally installed frameless glass fence significantly enhances the appeal of your home. Buyers associate frameless glass with luxury, safety and modern design — increasing the resale value of your property.
Frameless Glass Fencing Options
Every property is different, which is why Absolut Custom Glass Systems offers multiple installation styles to suit your layout, design preferences and budget. Our expert team will discuss your goals and recommend the most appropriate system based on your site conditions.
1. Frameless Glass Fencing on Spigots
Spigot-mounted glass fencing is one of the most popular and cost-effective frameless systems. Panels are supported by discreet stainless-steel spigots that allow the glass to appear as though it is floating. We install three primary types of spigots:
- Core-drilled spigots – best for concrete surfaces, offering exceptional strength.
- Base-plate spigots – ideal for timber decks or balconies.
- Face-mounted (Smarter Spigot) – maximises space, perfect for balconies.
All spigots are available in polish, satin and matt black finishes. Learn more about our spigot systems here:
2. Visible Channel Fix Glass Fencing
Visible channel fixing uses an aluminium channel securely attached to a concrete foundation. Glass panels sit inside the channel, protected by poly inserts that prevent friction against hard surfaces. This system offers a clean, continuous line along the base of the fence and is ideal for modern, architectural pool areas.

3. Invisible Channel Fix Glass Fencing
If you want the purest, most luxurious frameless look, the invisible channel system is unmatched. The glass appears to rise directly from the ground with no visible hardware — just a clean, uninterrupted glass plane. This system requires precise planning and site prep, often during construction or renovation, but the result is breathtaking.
Our invisible channel fix option is highly sought after for high-end homes and architectural pool areas.

4. Bent & Curved Glass Fencing
For homes wanting a true architectural feature, Absolut Custom Glass fabricates and installs premium curved and bent glass pool fencing. This option delivers a stunning sculptural aesthetic that standard flat panels cannot achieve. Each curved panel is engineered with precision, ensuring flawless alignment and a seamless finish.
This system is often used around kidney-shaped pools, curved balconies, and premium residential designs where visual impact is a priority.
Frameless Glass Balustrade Options
In addition to pool fencing, Absolut specialises in frameless glass balustrade systems for internal and external applications.
Internal Glass Balustrade & Staircase Balustrade
Internal glass balustrades create a brighter, more open interior while adding a sleek architectural feel to staircases, landings and voids. They increase natural light flow and modernise older homes instantly. Options include face-mount fittings, invisible channels and standoff systems.
External Glass Balustrade
External balustrades are perfect for balconies, outdoor areas and upper-storey terraces. They allow you to enjoy your views without obstruction and significantly enhance your property’s value. Choose from spigot-mounted, face-mounted, visible channel fix or invisible channel systems.
