Our frameless glass railings deliver the clearest sightlines in the industry. Whether paired with a floating stair, a hallway landing or a mezzanine overlook, every system is templated, engineered and installed to Ontario Building Code guardrail standards.

Hardware Mounting Systems

Four ways to secure frameless glass

Each method is chosen based on substrate, sightline goals and OBC handrail requirements.

Stainless Steel Standoff Pins

Side-mounted round or square stainless steel pins anchor glass panels directly into stair stringers, floor joists or fascia framing. The most popular look for mono and floating stairs.

Concealed Base Shoe Channel

An aluminum shoe channel embedded below floor level or fascia-mounted creates the pure glass-from-floor look. Ideal for landings, mezzanines and open-to-below guards.

Heavy-Duty Glass Spigots

Surface-mounted mini clamps secure glass at the base without a continuous channel. Best for flat floor landings, decks, balconies and commercial guard applications.

Micro-Cap & Continuous Top Rails

Sleek stainless steel or matching hardwood top channels provide a continuous graspable surface where the OBC requires a handrail while preserving the frameless aesthetic.

Safety, Code Compliance & Glass Specifications

Built to pass inspection and daily life

12mm Tempered & Laminated Safety Glass

All glass is CAN/CGSB 12.1-2017 certified, 12mm thick, heat-soaked tempered or laminated for occupant safety and long-term durability in high-traffic homes.

OBC Interior Guardrail Requirements

Frameless glass guards meet OBC Part 9 height requirements (900mm on stairs, 1070mm on landings) and required point-load capacities for residential occupancy.

Laser Templating & Pencil-Edge Polish

Every panel is laser-measured on site, CNC-cut to the exact stair angle, and finished with polished pencil edges for a clean, safe, premium appearance.

P.Eng Review for Standoff & Channel Loads

Connection spacing, glass thickness and hardware selection are reviewed against OBC guard loads so your frameless railing passes inspection without surprises.
