Adjustable glass railings are an innovative solution that combines a fixed glass railing with a movable windscreen. Using gas spring technology, the inner glass panel can be easily raised to provide shelter when the wind picks up, without blocking the view. When the windscreen is not needed, the glass is lowered manually or automatically (depending on the model) to return to its lower position.
Yes, we offer great flexibility when it comes to color choices. In addition to our popular standard colors, you can often have your railing powder-coated in almost any color to match the specific details of your home. A custom color on your aluminum railing can really be the finishing touch on your construction project.
For modern homes with clean lines, a post-free glass railing or an aluminum railing in black or anthracite gray is the best choice. A stainless steel railing with wire cables also creates an industrial and trendy look. The goal is often for the railing to be perceived as a natural and discreet extension of the home’s architecture.
Yes, our glass windbreaks can be custom-sized to fit your patio or balcony exactly. You enter the overall dimensions in our configurator, and we’ll calculate the width of each section to ensure a symmetrical and attractive result.
We provide clear instructions and videos to make DIY railing installation easier for you.
An outdoor glass railing is designed to be durable, but it requires a certain amount of regular maintenance to preserve its finish and ensure safety. The main maintenance task is keeping the glass surfaces free of dirt, pollen, and salt deposits that can impair visibility. Depending on the railing’s material (e.g., stainless steel or aluminum), the posts and hardware should also be wiped down to prevent surface corrosion or discoloration.
Absolutely. Aluminum is one of the most common materials used for balcony railings thanks to its strength and light weight. When installing railings on a balcony, it is especially important to follow the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building, and Planning’s regulations regarding railing height (1,100 mm for a fall height exceeding 3 meters) and to use safety glass. Our systems are designed to meet these strict requirements without compromising on design.
You’ll find plenty of balcony railing inspiration in our photo gallery on our website, where we showcase customer projects ranging from classic wooden decks to modern rooftop terraces. Social media platforms like Instagram and Pinterest are also excellent sources for seeing how different materials—such as stainless steel, glass, and wood—work together in real-world settings.
Choosing an aluminum railing is one of the most practical decisions you can make for your property, whether it’s a railing for a patio or a solution for a balcony. The material’s light weight, combined with its natural resistance to corrosion, makes it an ideal choice for the changing Nordic climate. Aluminum doesn’t rust, even in the salty coastal air, and the powder-coated finish retains its color intensity for decades without fading or peeling. The result is a maintenance-free outdoor railing that can be used on patios, balconies, and stairs without ever needing to be repainted.
At Balustrade Store , we manufacture every aluminum railing based on your unique specifications at our own factory in Ängelholm. Instead of using standard systems that are cut to size afterward, we deliver railing sections with millimeter precision that are technically dimensioned specifically for your mounting surface.
Our line of aluminum systems is designed to suit everything from minimalist new construction to older, more traditional homes. When looking at different types of railing designs, you often see how the choice of paneling changes the entire look of the house.
Our Arcus system has a modern look, with the glass and sturdy aluminum profiles working together to create a stable fall protection system. If you’re looking for a more timeless aesthetic, Forma is an excellent option, and you can find our entire selection under “Glass Railings.”
For projects where you want to replicate the look of a traditional wrought-iron railing without the maintenance requirements, Retro is the obvious choice. You’ll get a railing with horizontal slats made of powder-coated aluminum that provide a stylish barrier—see the entire series under “wrought-iron railings.”
With Linea, you can create an airy space where stainless steel wires contrast with the aluminum frame.
With the Color system, you can choose a specific color that matches your home’s windows or doors. If you need a solution for French doors, check out our Lumo French balcony under “French Balconies,” and for easier installation, there’s the Sense system.
Powder Coating, RAL Colors, and Safety Requirements
One of the biggest advantages of a maintenance-free outdoor railing is that you avoid future renovation needs such as scraping and repainting. Our profiles are powder-coated in the entire RAL color range—the most common colors are black (RAL 9005), white (RAL 9010), anthracite (RAL 7016), and silver (RAL 9006)—which provides an extremely durable surface that protects against fading from the sun’s UV rays and corrosion from moisture. Rinsing with water 1–2 times a year is usually sufficient to maintain the finish.
Safety is the cornerstone of our product development. The railing height is designed in accordance with the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning’s building codes, which require a minimum height of 1,100 mm for fall heights over three meters; in systems that include glass, we use exclusively tempered and laminated safety glass. The manufacturing process is certified by RISE in accordance with EN 1090-1:2009+A1:2011. You can find more information about the regulations in ourrailing guide.
