How Glass Railings Add Value to Your Property
Glass Railings Are Stylish & Modern
The sleek, modern look of a glass railing makes any place look brand new. Whether you are upgrading a property or building a new one, the clean lines of a glass railing will make the property appear fresh and current, even for years down the road. People are willing to pay more for something new, and glass railings add that very element. Glass railings also make a room or patio look bigger. Because you can see through them, it creates an optical illusion that there is more space than there is. By making a property look bigger, you maximize its selling potential. When used on a patio or balcony, the glass railings also offer unobstructed views of the landscape around it. This gives buyers a full view of the surrounding area. With the addition of a glass railing, properties are upgraded to become trendy and stylish, resulting in a higher price that buyers are willing to pay.
Glass Railings Provide Safety
Glass railings are an easy solution to making a property safer. They can withstand high impact and various temperatures without breaking, making them perfect for indoor or outdoor use. Since they don’t weaken over time, glass railings are perfect for outdoor balconies. They prevent people from falling off a high edge, without obstructing their view. They can also be used as a staircase railing as well to help stabilize those going down stairs. Perhaps their best use however is as a pool fence that prevents unattended children from drowning by accidentally falling into a pool. In most places there are laws that require pool fences because of their safety benefits. By making a property safer, it becomes more inviting to all groups of people – especially families with small children. So by simply adding a glass railing or pool fence it will increase the property’s value.

Project Spotlight: Glass Railing at DJ Khaled’s Miami Home
DJ Khaled is an American DJ who is well known in the music industry. His waterfront Miami home is the definition of luxury. Situated in a high-end Miami area, this sizeable remodeled home features an open floor plan, private movie theater, floating staircases, and vast windows. The beautiful outdoor area includes a massive swimming pool, courtyard, and gazebo hangout. Along the water is a boat slip for his treasured jet skis and boat, making this quite the outdoor paradise.
The boat slip’s perimeter is lined with our fully frameless glass railing system. This modern design is fascia mounted to conserve the maximum size of the area while adding a secure boundary.
The additional top cap rail ties the overall piece together, finished with a dark oil rubbed bronze color. Our signature frameless gate system offers self-closing and self-latching properties, allowing for easy and secure access onto the boat slip.
This fully frameless railing system is perfect for this waterfront mansion, allowing for unobstructed picturesque views. In addition, its strategic design is engineered as a safety barrier between the property and the open water, allowing for his young son Asahd to safely play outdoors.
