Art Metal Workshop measures, designs, fabricates and installs custom glass railings for decks, stairs, balconies and outdoor living spaces across Burlington. We build every layout around your actual opening, surrounding finishes and supporting surface, so the railing fits the space rather than the other way around.
We create glass railing systems for:
Our Burlington service area includes Downtown, Aldershot, Brant Hills, Headon Forest, Millcroft, The Orchard, Roseland, Shoreacres, Tyandaga, Alton Village and surrounding areas.
Consider glass for a few reasons:
Posts and a top rail create a clearly defined edge around each panel. A fit for decks, balconies, stairs and traditional exterior architecture.
Narrow posts support the glass with less metal across your view, giving you openness with a visible structural rhythm.
Glass is held with base channels, spigots or side-mounted fittings. This frameless glass approach is often the right choice when you want to keep an important view as open as possible.
Lake moisture and open exposure can affect hardware and finish selection near Burlington’s waterfront, and escarpment-facing properties often place extra importance on preserving the view. Send us photos that show the full edge, corners, stairs and the material beneath your proposed railing so we can plan accordingly.
Exposure matters. We review wind, moisture, mounting surfaces and the length of each run before recommending hardware and panel configuration.
Yes. Frosted or tinted glass can screen selected sections while keeping a lighter appearance than a fully solid privacy wall.
It depends. Glass can maintain visibility across your yard, but the complete enclosure, gates and local requirements need to be reviewed for your specific property.
Both require glass cleaning. Framed systems have more posts and rails to wipe, while frameless systems place greater emphasis on clean panel surfaces.
Panel dimensions, glass type, stairs, corners, hardware, mounting method, access and structural preparation can create very different project scopes.
