Four railing systems.

The base shoe holds a continuous run of glass in one channel — alongside the standoff, the spigot and mini post and the post system. The system is simply how the glass wants to meet the structure.

Decks, stairs, guardrails, pools

One channel, a continuous run of glass.

A base shoe carries the glass in a single channel along a deck, a stair, a guardrail or a pool surround. Because the run is continuous, the railing reads as one line rather than a sequence of fixings.

Technology

Glass tilt adjustability, for alignment at any angle.

The shoe lets each panel be tilted true after it is set, so a stair, a slope or an out-of-square deck still finishes dead in line. Every panel is precision cut by experienced craftsmen and fitted by the team that templated it.

Design

Sleek above, hidden below.

With the hardware inside the channel there is nothing on the glass to interrupt the view, indoors on a landing or outdoors around a pool. It never rusts, decays, rots or needs repainting.
