- Easy installation: Simply bolt down your posts, slide your glass into position and secure with rubber inserts.

What glass should I use?
If the balustrade is protecting from a fall height of over 600mm you must use 13.52mm laminated toughened glass to meet the guidelines set out in BS6180 (system is load tested to 0.74kN for residential and light commercial use only).
If the fall height is under 600mm, you can use standard 10mm toughened panels.
✓ Each post includes top cap cover, base plate cover and rubber inserts.
