About Glass Point Fixing System
Glass Railing Point Fittings are specially designed hardware components used for fixing glass panels in railing systems, facades, canopies, and other architectural applications. Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel (SS 304/202), these fittings provide maximum strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
With a sleek and modern design, Glass Point Fittings ensure a secure installation while maintaining a frameless and elegant look. They are widely used in balconies, staircases, poolside railings, and commercial glass structures. Easy to install and maintain, these fittings are available in different sizes, finishes, and designs to match various architectural requirements.
Flexible Mounting and ApplicationEnjoy unmatched flexibility with mounting choices that include wall, floor, fin, ceiling, and bespoke anchoring solutions. Engineered for diverse architectural settings, the point fixing system seamlessly fits curtain walls, facades, partitions, canopies, balustrades, and glass doors, empowering you to enhance aesthetic vision while meeting structural requirements.
Exceptional Strength and DurabilitySupporting glass panels of up to 500 kg, these fittings are meticulously crafted from high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304/316), aluminum alloy, or mild steel. Designed to withstand demanding environments, the system boasts a lifespan of 30 years or more under recommended conditions. Corrosion resistance, UV protection, and weatherproof features guarantee lasting performance indoors or outdoors.
Tailored for Design and SafetyStandard and custom diameters (22mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm) and patterns are available to suit project needs. The structural clamp/spider assemblies feature rotatable articulation and comply with international standards (EN, ASTM, BS). Sealing with silicone or EPDM ensures weather-tight joints, meaning the installation is secure, efficient, and visually immaculate with virtually unobstructed glass surfaces.
FAQ's of Glass Point Fixing System:
Q: How do I choose the appropriate point fixing system for my glass installation project?
A: Selection depends on the application, glass thickness, load capacity, mounting preference (wall, floor, fin, etc.), and architectural design. Identify the glass weight, desired visibility, and installation environment to consult the manufacturer for model recommendations.
Q: What are the main mounting options available for the Glass Point Fixing System?
A: The system can be mounted on walls, floors, fins, ceilings, and even customized anchors to suit unique installation needs. This adaptability enables use across curtain walls, facades, partitions, canopies, balustrades, and doors.
Q: When should I use customized anchoring or non-standard diameters?
A: Customized anchoring is advisable for non-traditional or complex structures, unusual load requirements, or when integrating with specific facade assemblies. Non-standard diameters are selected when standard sizes do not align with aesthetic or engineering demands.
Q: Where are these point fixings most suitable for use?
A: They excel in both interior and exterior architectural applications-curtain walls, facades, canopies, balustrades, partitions, and transparent doors-providing unobtrusive support with full glass visibility.
Q: What is the installation process for these fittings?
A: After site assessment, select appropriate fixings based on glass thickness and load. Secure the fittings to the intended mounting surface, apply silicone or EPDM seals, and align the glass using the precision articulating system. Follow the manufacturer's manual for details.
Q: How does the system benefit architectural projects?
A: It offers remarkable design freedom, enhanced aesthetics through minimal framing, long-term reliability, high strength, quick installation, and compliance with international safety standards, all while ensuring complete visibility and weather resistance.
Q: Can the point fixing system accommodate different glass panel types and thicknesses?
A: Yes, it is compatible with flat and bent tempered glass, as well as toughened, laminated, insulated, Low-E, and heat-soaked glass, supporting thicknesses from 8 mm up to 19 mm or beyond, based on the model.
