Semi-Frameless · SS304 & SS316 Balustrades
Stainless Steel Glass Railing in Hyderabad
SS glass railing combines stainless steel balustrades with toughened glass infill panels. It is a semi-frameless system: the balustrades carry the load, so the glass is often thinner than in a frameless railing. We fabricate SS304 and SS316 posts, clamps and handrails at our IDA Jeedimetla factory and install this system across Hyderabad on staircases, corridors and balconies. Glass build-up and finished height are confirmed on the shop drawing.
Components and specification
| Component | Specification |
|---|---|
| Balustrades and top rail | SS304 for interiors and inland sites; SS316 for coastal, pool-deck and exterior locations |
| Glass infill | 10–12mm toughened for standard spans; up to 18mm for atria and high-load areas; 6+6+1.52 laminated where a broken panel must stay in place |
| Glass fixing | SS glass clamps or an infill channel between balustrades |
| Height | Height on the approved drawing |
| Balustrade spacing | Set on shop drawings to suit the glass panel width and load |
The posts are the balustrades. Glass clamps, or a small channel between posts, hold the infill. The handrail is the top rail, in satin, mirror polish or a PVD colour. Post spacing is set to the panel width on the drawing.
SS304 or SS316?
| Grade | Use it for |
|---|---|
| SS304 | Interiors, inland residential and commercial towers, balconies, corridors |
| SS316 | Coastal sites, pool decks, exterior podiums and high-humidity areas |
The full comparison is in our SS304 vs SS316 guide.
SS glass railing or frameless?
It costs less than frameless and uses thinner glass, because the balustrades take the load. It suits staircases, where the balustrades follow the stair line, and long corridor or balcony runs on a budget. Frameless railing is chosen where an uninterrupted glass look matters most. See frameless glass railings or the glass railing overview.
Finishes
Balustrades and handrails are available in satin (hairline) and mirror polish, and in PVD colour finishes.
