Frameless glazing of balconies and loggias is the most modern type of glazing. Solid glazing provides a beautiful panoramic view, not "breaking" it with vertical profiles. This glazing protects well from dust and moisture.
Technology came to us from Finland and implies the use of a safe and shock-resistant tempered glass thickness of 6, 8 or 10 mm. If somehow it will be possible to break it, the glass will break up into small parts (less than 1 cm) without sharp edges and can not cause harm. The glass is fixed from above and from below into special guides and is moved by means of special rollers. A transparent seal between the panes prevents rainfall and foreign objects from reaching the balcony when closed.
Each leaf swings open, and the entire structure can be moved in one direction, which allows you to wash the windows without any problems and remove the fence around the perimeter, opening the entire balcony opening.
High requirements for glass quality and other components, as well as work, dictate the corresponding prices for frameless glazing, so you need to be prepared that the costs will be much higher than the minimum, but the result is also significantly different. Another drawback of this solution is the complexity or even the inability to install mosquito nets. Technology does not provide for this. But the grid can be simply installed on the balcony door.
But if you do not need to make a living room from a balcony or a loggia and you want to install a modern and stylish design to ensure maximum illumination and space, then frameless glass balconies are for you.
