Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an intermediate and an end railing post?

The intermediate post has four glass clamps, with two on each side, allowing it to support two adjacent glass panels. An end post has clamps on one side and is used to finish a railing section.

Are the handrail bracket, glass clamps and gaskets included?

Yes. The package includes a top handrail bracket, four glass clamps and gaskets suitable for the selected glass thickness. The handrail tube itself is not included.

What is the overall height of the installed railing?

The post height is 1230 mm. Due to its side-mounted design, the overall installed railing height above the finished floor is approximately 1100 mm.

Why choose AISI 316 stainless steel?

AISI 316 stainless steel offers improved resistance to chloride-induced corrosion compared with AISI 304, making it a suitable choice for many coastal and more demanding outdoor environments. Appropriate maintenance and compatible fixing materials remain important.
