Reviews
Thank you to the installers Joe and Luke for their hard work. It wasn't easy going up all the stairs but they were happy doing so and I couldn't be happier with the doors. Also Henry has been fantastic from start
Glideline installed 6 sets of sliding doors in our house. This was a major investment for us so we wanted it to be just right. David and all the team were friendly and helpful from start to finish. Henry was great.
FAQs
What is an Integrated Balcony?
An Integrated Balcony is a frameless glass system that seamlessly integrates with sliding doors or window frames, providing unobstructed views and enhanced safety without the need for traditional railings.
How does the integration work?
Sliding Door Integration – The balcony is built into the track of the sliding door, extending half the width of the aperture. Frame Integration – The balcony is attached to the window or door frame, covering the full width for maximum visibility and security.
Is the glass strong enough for safety?
Yes! Our Integrated Balconies use 21.5mm toughened laminated glass, which is designed for high impact resistance and structural durability, ensuring maximum safety.
Does the Integrated Balcony block natural light?
No! Since the system is fully glazed and frameless, it allows for maximum daylight penetration, making indoor spaces feel brighter and more open.
Who can benefit from an Integrated Balcony?
Integrated Balconies are ideal for modern apartments, penthouses, and homes where you want uninterrupted views, enhanced safety, and a contemporary finish.
