Frameless glazing of balconies and loggias

In recent years, frameless glazing has become increasingly popular among the population. And this is not surprising, because it was glass that was recently considered the “building material of the future”, and today light transparent structures made of this material have already firmly entered our daily lives. They immediately attract attention with their beauty and uniqueness.

The method of frameless glazing of balconies and loggias came to us from Finland. Unfortunately, it does not save from the cold, but performs only a protective function. First of all, this method is designed to protect the balcony from torrential rains, snowfalls and heavy winds.

The benefits of frameless glazing

1. This method is ideal for any balconies, regardless of their type, shape and age of buildings. Frameless glazing does not affect the general appearance of the structure and will harmoniously fit into any building.
2. The balcony can always be fully opened for ventilation. Special roller technology eliminates the need for special efforts.
3. The design only seems fragile and unreliable. In fact, it consists of durable tempered glass sheets with a thickness of about 10 mm. It passes all kinds of tests, and it can only be broken by applying purposeful efforts.
4. The frameless system allows you to clean glass without any problems.
5. Impeccable appearance, panoramic view and visual expansion of the internal area of ​​the room in which there is a balcony.

The disadvantages of frameless glazing

1. In the cold season, a glass fence can only increase the temperature by a few degrees.
2. The tightness of the design is significantly inferior to double-glazed windows. Frameless glazing practically does not reduce the level of external noise.
3. The complexity of the installation, which should be almost jewelry. Accordingly, high costs for the services of an installer.
4. A mosquito net is not provided; when the windows are open, they freely enter the apartment.
5. The transparency of the balcony. Especially on the lower floors, it is worth taking care of protective curtains, so as to limit personal space.

In a word, frameless glazing is not suitable for everyone. However, it gives the balcony a unique and modern look. And if you decide to glaze the balcony in this way, then its unique style, sophistication and reliability will delight you for many years.
