Featured project: Glass banister infill on timber staircase
Clamp-fixed clear glass panels replaced the old spindles, instantly transforming the staircase and landing. The change opened up the hallway, letting light pass freely between floors, and gave the space a cleaner, more contemporary feel. The robust handrail design keeps the installation practical for everyday use while still looking sleek.
