Standoff mount glass guards

Glass panels are side mounted to a support. We use 1-1 / 2” diameter cylindrical stainless steel standoffs.

Standoffs are satin stainless-steel finish. As a custom finish, standoffs may be blackened or polished.

Our patented adjustable standoffs allow perfect alignment of glass panels without the need for glass caps or any other hardware to help with glass guard geometry, even if the mounting support surface is not plumb and straight.

Hidden hardware glass guards

We make frameless glass guards. Typically, we do side mount standoff installation. To achieve a more minimalistic look, it is often requested to have glass guard connecting hardware, concealed. Hardware, connecting glass panels to stairs we hide with caps, looking like step extensions.

When a glass guard with hidden hardware is required along floor openings, a space for hardware (between rim joist and finishing material) must be planned. It is a common mistake to have framing (sometimes even drywall) done expecting traditional top munt railing end then express a wish to have a hidden hardware glass guard.

Building a “mask” for glass hardware is not included in our price unless stated otherwise.
