Glass Fence – Wind & Privacy Protection for Outdoor Living

Create Shelter and Privacy Without Blocking the View

Design a stylish, wind-protected space with a bespoke glass fence – ideal for adding privacy and comfort while keeping your outdoor area light and open. Unlike traditional fencing, glass allows uninterrupted views, making it perfect for modern homes and contemporary landscaping.

At Balustradedesign, we tailor each fence to your preferences. Whether you’re enclosing an outdoor seating area, lining a rooftop terrace or adding a boundary around your garden retreat, our made-to-measure systems offer lasting protection with minimal maintenance.

All fences are CE-certified, designed for British weather, and available in multiple materials and finishes.

Stainless Steel Glass Fence – Modern Look, Lasting Strength

For a sleek and highly durable option, stainless steel posts offer structural stability and visual impact. AISI 304 is perfect for most outdoor settings, while AISI 316 provides extra corrosion resistance near the coast or in exposed zones.

  • Polished or brushed finish
  • Strong, weather-resistant construction
  • Minimal maintenance and timeless appeal

Aluminium Glass Fence – Lightweight, Rust-Free and Versatile

If you prefer a lightweight and easy-to-install system, aluminium offers clean lines and a rustproof finish. Ideal for everything from courtyard fencing to poolside barriers.

  • Available in black, white or any RAL colour with Alu Color
  • Compatible with clear, frosted or tinted glass
  • Simple DIY installation – no welding or specialist tools

Glass Fences with Dark Frames – Refined Contrast

Want to highlight your design? Choose a black or coloured frame from our Alu Color range and combine it with frosted or grey glass for a striking, architectural look that complements any façade.

Which Glass Type Is Right for Your Fence?

We offer a range of laminated safety glass options depending on your needs:

  • Clear glass – for full visibility and light flow
  • Frosted (opal) glass – for privacy without blocking light.
  • Tinted glass – in grey or bronze for a modern, shaded finish

All glass panels are CE-marked and comply with UK safety standards.

Planning Permission – Do You Need It for a Glass Fence?

In many cases, you won’t need planning permission for a glass fence – especially if it’s a low boundary within your own property. However, you should check with your local authority if:

  • Your fence is close to a road or neighbouring property
  • The height exceeds 1100 mm
  • You’re installing around a pool or elevated platform

Installing Your Glass Fence – A Simple DIY Process

Our fences come as ready-to-assemble kits with all components included. No need for specialist tools or experience. Just follow our clear instructions or watch our assembly videos.

  1. Measure and mark your fixing points.
  2. Install the posts or profiles onto the base.
  3. Fit the glass panels into place.
  4. Check alignment and secure everything tightly.
