Staircases and Ballustrades

With the glass staircases in the Apple Stores being an iconic example of glass staircases it is important to note that the glass used in these constructions are chemically toughened which results in very strong glass finishes.

UK Glass provide many bespoke stair designs, either using structural glass assemblies or a combination of materials such as cantilevered timber or stone treads. For example you can use inverted glass screens acting as balustrades (ie; hung from soffits) or more traditional steel stringer solutions with the glass treads suspended between them and a glass balustrade structurally bonded to the outer face.
