Design and appearance
Timber Post Glass Balustrades provide a warm, rustic look compared to stainless steel systems. Posts can be hardwood or treated softwood, often reinforced with steel for strength. The natural timber finish suits gardens, safari parks, heritage sites and outdoor venues where steel may look too modern.
Glass panels keep sightlines clear while the timber frames create a softer boundary. Options include clear, frosted or tinted glass depending on privacy needs.
Safety and compliance
Each system is engineered to UK Building Regulations. Posts are steel-reinforced and glass panels are either toughened or laminated. Gaps are under 100 mm to meet child safety standards. Timber Post Glass Balustrades are suitable for both private homes and public commercial settings.
For guidance see UK Building Regulations.
