Frameless glass pool fencing is the most widely used type of glass fencing.

It is a simple system of standard off-the-shelf glass panels used with glass clamps called spigots, two spigots are used to clamp the glass at the base of each panel securing them to the ground.

This type of glass pool fencing is cost-effective and adds a luxurious finish to a pool fence project.

Frameless glass fencing is suitable for installation on tiles and pavers on a concrete slab and timber decks. For areas that don't have a concrete foundation or slab such as garden beds or grass areas, a concrete strip footing can be installed to allow glass installation. As glass panels are subject to wind loads a sound foundation is key to ensuring a safe and long lasting glass fence.

Channel Glass Pool Fencing uses two types of installation, the first being an aluminum U shaped channel that is bolted to the ground or frame and the glass panels are secured in the channel by a clamping system or by grouting the glass into the channel. This method can be
installed after ground works have been completed.

The second method of installation is the glass is fitted to a slot in a concrete slab that has been designed to accept the glass panels.

The disadvantage of this system is the installation is permanent and the glass cannot be removed without breaking the panel.

Both methods require careful planning and setup of the foundations or framing to ensure adequate structural strength. The Channel systems utilise stock glass panels and gate systems that are used in the frameless spigot system allowing flexibility in design.

We specialise in the design and construction of engineered glass safety barriers for glass pool fencing and glass balustrade.

The design process starts with the functional elements and the practical use of the space, once we have determined the functional elements, we apply the engineering and compliance criteria to design the barrier ensuring we meet or exceed the construction code regulations.

The process of designing the barrier can be as simple as working off architectural plans or from an onsite measure and consultation with the builder and/or property owner.

Once the scope of the design has been finalised we can move to creating a proposal and quotation for the barrier.
