Glass railings offer great creative freedom in the design of contemporary façades to high aesthetic standards. The transparent material not only looks good; it also tastefully complements the general architectural design without sacrificing functionality or safety.
SWISSRAILING two sided NG from Glas Trösch is a glass railing system that meets stringent functional and design-related requirements across the board: with elegant cross bars and premium laminated safety glass, the system guarantees the highest levels of transparency, aesthetics and safety.
Floor-to-ceiling windows not only offer unobstructed views and allow rooms to be flooded with natural daylight – they are also now integral design elements of contemporary façades.
The use of SWISSRAILING two sided NG retains the transparency and aesthetics of the façade, also acting as a protective barrier – the view can be enjoyed from inside without any visual obstructions, while the glass railing elegantly complements the general architectural concept.
The cross bars in SWISSRAILING two sided NG are available with a wide range of colour coatings and can thus be matched to the colour design of the façade.
To reduce the visibility of structural materials to a minimum, the new generation of SWISSRAILING two sided also features glare protection, effectively masking the bolts in the structure.
The glass used is available in widths of up to four metres and can also be printed or embellished with matte or coloured film – SWISSRAILING two sided NG can therefore harmoniously complement the overall architectural impression or form a decorative highlight in the design.
SWISSRAILING two sided NG is a complete system comprising two cross bars, one pane of laminated safety glass, elegant edge protection and fastening bolts – there is no need for any further materials or structural modifications.
The glass railing can be attached to window sections made of plastic, wood, aluminium or steel in the reveal, on the masonry or on balusters, and are easy to fit with a shutter or solar shading system.
In compliance with DIN 18008-4, SWISSRAILING two sided NG meets the requirements for barrier glazing and has thus been issued a building standards inspection certificate.
