Side installed postless railing
Fastening method of the railing is based on horizontal stabilization. Horizontally stabilized balustrade is fastened from the ends of the handrail to balcony walls. This structure is the load bearing one. Lower glass frame is attached with a lighter fastening since the load bearing capacity needed is minimal. The handrail can be strengthened with support posts. The amount of support posts needed depends on environmental conditions on site and local regulations. As lower glassframe also works as a fastener, no additional brackets are needed. Cladding is always on the outside of the supporting posts.
It is not possible to choose a double frame to the balustrade. Cladding replacement must be done by the entire glass pane. Variation can be created by patterning the panes or boards (eg. screen printing, digital printing or sand blasting).
Due to postlessness of the balustrade, neither fixed upper parts for height reduction nor slab overhang are possible.
