Top Mounted Glass Railing — Post-Top Glass Clamp Systems — SS304 & SS316
Top mounted glass railing uses stainless steel posts fixed to the top of the slab with glass panels clamped between or alongside the posts using glass clamp fittings. A cost-effective alternative to full frameless systems — easier to install and simpler to replace individual glass panels.
Top mounted glass railing is the practical middle ground — the glass is real, the look is clean, but the hardware is visible as small SS glass clamps at the post tops. It's significantly more economical than a full frameless system and much faster to install on an existing slab because there's no cutting or coring required. The glass is 12mm toughened standard — we can also do laminated if you need it. Hardware finish options include satin SS304, mirror SS316, anodised aluminium channels, or PVD black and gold. We'll show you samples before you decide.

Systems & Options
Side-Mount Glass Clamp System
SS posts fixed to the slab surface with glass panels clamped to the side of each post using adjustable SS glass clamps. Most popular top-mounted configuration. No core drilling required — surface fixing only.

Between-Post Glass Panel System
Glass panels installed between SS posts with rubber-lined SS clamps top and bottom. Panels fully supported on all edges. More structural than side-mount. Preferred for commercial balconies above 6th floor.
