Structural Glass In Slough & Berkshire
Structural Glass can be utilised in roofing areas to create a fully glazed roof to any space or room. It is ideal for internal rooms where external windows do not allow much sunlight to come into your property. Another handy use for this stunning glass is in extensions or conservatories where light from the side windows can be restricted by neighbouring properties.
These overhead elements of structural glazing will allow the maximum amount of natural light to enter a space and with the improvements in glass technology, can keep a space at a comfortable temperature regardless of the outside weather. Structural Glass roofs will generally need some type of structural support. Low Iron glass beams can give a great completely transparent horizontal element to a space with frameless detailing at the edges to hide all brackets and fixings to the structural glass beam.
What is structural glazing?
It can bear weight both horizontally and vertically, and it can be bonded using everything from minimal glass beams and supports to heavy-duty steel struts, meaning it can be used on almost any scale, with almost any aesthetic imaginable. Everything from completely frameless sliding glass doors to load-bearing high-strength glass floors can be created.
