Bolt Fix Glass Balustrades Melbourne

Bolt fix glass balustrades use toughened glass panels fixed directly to the structure using stainless steel standoff bolts (point fixings). The glass panels are mounted through pre-drilled holes, allowing the glass to sit off the face of the slab, wall or staircase without the need for posts or a base channel.

Custom made in Melbourne, engineered to your verified fixing layout and glass specifications.

Clear Views With Structural Post Support

Semi-frameless glass balustrades use glass panels fixed between vertical posts. The posts provide structural support while the glass infill panels maintain clear sight lines between them.

Ready Glaze semi-frameless panels are 10mm toughened safety glass fixed between stainless steel or aluminium posts. Posts are available in round, square and rectangular profiles with surface mount or side mount base plates.

Semi-frameless balustrades suit decks, verandahs, staircases and commercial balconies. They offer a good balance between the open look of frameless and the structural simplicity and lower cost of a framed system. They are easier to install on uneven surfaces or complex runs with changes in direction.

A handrail can be added in round or rectangular profile, in stainless steel or aluminium, to match the posts.

Measurement Guidance

Measure total run length including corners. Measure height. Note substrate, corners, steps and termination points. Include site sketch or photo.

Semi-Frameless Balustrades FAQs

Common questions about our semi-frameless glass balustrades

What is a semi-frameless balustrade?

Glass panels fixed between vertical posts. Posts provide structure while glass maintains clear views.

How is it different from frameless?

Semi-frameless has vertical posts between panels. Frameless has no posts — just spigots or channels.

What post profiles are available?

Round, square and rectangular in stainless steel or aluminium.

Can I install it myself?

Yes. Posts are fixed first, then glass panels are fitted between them. More straightforward than frameless.

Do you deliver across Melbourne?

Yes. Ready Glaze delivers across all Melbourne metro areas.
