About This Project

We completed a premium frameless glass railing installation for a modern commercial interior, combining safety, transparency, and a clean architectural aesthetic. The system was designed to preserve open sightlines while providing full code-compliant protection for elevated areas and staircases.

This project features a base shoe system for the landings and standoff-mounted glass panels along the stairs, finished with sleek top-mounted and side-mounted handrails for maximum comfort and safety.
