Fortitude Contemporary Glass and Post Balustrade

Fortitude Traditional Contemporary is an alternative glass panel and post balustrade solution. This balustrade solution offers style and sophistication for any domestic deck, balcony or patio. The system is designed to provide maximum functionality and minimal obstruction of views by using strong, narrow upright posts in conjunction with top and bottom fixed slats.

Contemporary uses a unique toughened 8mm glass panel to fit the reinforced aluminium channels to provide a durable and rigid balustrade.

Panels

The Fortitude Contemporary system utilises the strength of toughened glass panels paired with a unique aluminium channel fixed by brackets at both the foot and top of each post, with further support provided by a support foot. Glass panels are supplied in one standard size at 8mm thickness (1000 x 760mm) which ensures the correct rigidity and integrity of the system. Panels can be fixed to either 50mm or 75mm posts depending on preference. Please note that post centres will vary depending on the size of post used.

To achieve this look, order; 1x Channel Kit, 2x 8mm Glass Panels and 1x Railing Bracket set (pack of 4).
