Here at TSS Balustrade Centre, leading balustrade suppliers based in Newport, we understand the power a transformative power a well-designed balcony or staircase can have on your home. Frameless glass balustrades, in particular, have become increasingly popular – and for good reason! But how do you choose between framed and frameless glass for your project? Let’s delve into the pros and cons of each option to help you make an informed decision.



Framed Glass Balustrades: A Classic Choice

Framed glass balustrades offer a timeless aesthetic that complements a variety of architectural styles. Frames, typically made from aluminium or wood, provide a strong and secure structure for the glass panels. This makes them a good option for properties with young children or pets, where added security might be a priority. Additionally, framed glass balustrades are generally more affordable than their frameless counterparts.

The Appeal of Frameless Glass

However, for many homeowners, the allure of frameless glass is undeniable. Here’s why frameless glass balustrades are the go-to choice for most of our customers:

Unmatched View

Frameless glass balustrades offer an unobstructed view, maximising natural light and creating a sense of spaciousness. This is particularly beneficial for properties overlooking stunning scenery or smaller balconies where you want to avoid a cluttered aesthetic.

Modern Elegance

Frameless glass exudes a sleek, minimalist look that instantly elevates your home’s contemporary style. It seamlessly integrates with your interior design, creating a sophisticated and airy ambience.

Durability and Safety

Don’t be fooled by the minimalist design. Our frameless glass balustrades use high-quality, toughened laminated glass that meets all relevant safety regulations. This ensures exceptional strength and durability, making them perfect for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Making the Right Choice

Ultimately, the best choice for your project depends on your priorities and preferences. If affordability and a more traditional look are high on your list, framed glass might be the way to go. However, if you prioritise uninterrupted views, a modern aesthetic, and a feeling of spaciousness, frameless glass is the clear winner.
