Glass Balustrades
I O N Glass creates bespoke frameless glass balustrades for residential and commercial properties. These installations enhance safety while maintaining visual openness, suitable for balconies, staircases, and mezzanine floors. The company offers multiple fixing methods including bolted, channel set, and clamp plate systems. All installations comply with British Standards and can incorporate curved or straight designs with optional handrails.
Fire Rated Glazing
Specialist fire-rated glass systems prevent fire spread while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Solutions include doors, screens, and partitions that meet 30-120 minute fire integrity standards. The company integrates automatic closing mechanisms and combines glass with steel or timber frames where appropriate. These systems maintain visibility and light flow in commercial and public buildings while ensuring safety compliance.
Glass Linkways
Structural glass linkways connect buildings with minimal visual impact. These weather-resistant installations use single or double glazing to create energy-efficient corridors. The designs accommodate movement between structures and can incorporate glass floors or beams. Ideal for heritage projects requiring modern extensions, the linkways maintain architectural integrity while providing functional connections between old and new buildings.
Glass Doors
Custom frameless glass doors combine security with contemporary aesthetics. Available as hinged, pivot, or sliding options, they suit residential and commercial settings. The doors incorporate fire-rated and secure glazing options with concealed hardware for seamless integration. Bespoke finishes include sandblasted patterns, coloured glass, and switchable privacy technology for versatile applications in modern architecture.
Glass Screens
Architectural glass screens create functional spaces without compromising light flow. Solutions include acoustic partitions for meeting rooms, switchable privacy screens, and wet area enclosures. The company uses structural fins and minimal fixings for stability while maintaining visual transparency. These screens adapt to commercial, educational, and residential environments with custom sizing and decorative glass options.
