GLASS RAILING SYSTEMS
MADE EASY

Q: Can I Get A Wood Top Rail?

Our systems are not designed for wood top rail, however, it may be possible to add a wood top rail to our systems by modifying our posts and/or top rails. We do not directly provide wood top rail. It would have to be purchased from another supplier. We do not recommend adding a wood top rail as it will void the warranty.

Q: What Types Of Surfaces Can Railing Mount To?

You can install the posts on wood surfaces, composite, vinyl, concrete, stone, brick, or just about any other surface you may have. For certain applications, special mounting hardware may be required.

Q: Which Is A Stronger Mounting Style: Deck Mount Or Fascia Mount?

Fascia mount is generally considered to be stronger because the sides and ends of beams are generally stronger than deck surfaces. The IBC and IRC do not specify a mounting method. It is best to check with the building codes in your area to make sure there is not a specific requirement in terms of mounting style.

Q: How Safe Are Glass Railings?

Glass railings are very safe when installed correctly, using tempered or laminated glass that meets building code requirements and can withstand significant pressure. Regular maintenance and professional installation further ensure their safety and durability.

Can I give them a 10 star? AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!! The installation was simple and straight to the point! The quality is beyond luxurious! Once ordered and payed, they were on my door step in less than two weeks! For all my glass railing needs, I will ONLY use eGlass!

- DACEY (MANASSAS, VA)

"I submitted my project drawing and within a week received precise engineered drawings and a detailed cost estimate. Materials were delivered promptly and well packaged. I enjoyed the ease of installation, the beauty of the railing complementing our TREX deck, and the preservation of our view! Randy was very helpful answering any questions I had while ordering and installing the railing. I recommend Glass Railing over the other railing companies I've reached out to in the past. Thank you!"

- JEFF (GRAND JUNCTION, CO)

"Everything was higher quality than I even expected and it looks great!"

- STEVEN (PORTLAND, OR)

"I'm a DIYer and had an excellent experience with Glass. It was hard to find a reasonable price elsewhere for glass railings for my deck, but I was very happy with their prices. Randy helped from the estimate to post delivery, even taking time to help with questions during the installation.

Great folks, great prices, and fantastic product!"

- RAYMOND (CONCORD, NC)

I was able to do the entire job by myself. The next one will be easy!!! Thank you to you and your colleagues for your advice, support and a great product.

- GORDON (VANCOUVER, WA)

I researched 3 other glass railing companies and finally decided on this one and am so glad I did. The company was a pleasure to work with and the product arrived fitting the space perfectly. Every single day now I can look from my kitchen sink through the glass doors and my beautiful glass railing and see my lemon and orange trees with birds and squirrels flitting about. Nothing else I have done in remodeling this house makes me as happy!

- SUZY (OAKLAND, CA)

The product is great and dealing with your company was exceptional. Thank you so much! The drawings you provided helped a great deal as well. Finished product turned out great.

- DAN (RAVENNA, MI)

The folks at eGlass were very helpful in working through several design iterations and answering my questions along the way. The parts were shipped in a reasonable amount of time and we were able to complete the installation over a few late-summer sunny days. The result is a beautiful, professional-looking railing that preserves our view and garners lots of compliments! I definitely recommend eGlass for their high-quality products, top-notch people, and great customer service.

- GERRY (SOMIS, CA)

Turned out great and will definitely go with your company again if the customer is looking for glass!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do eGlass Railing™ systems meet building code? What Is The Code For Glass Railings?

Our railings have been engineered to meet current IRC and IBC, however, the local codes in your area may be different. Glass railings must comply with the International Building Code (IBC), requiring a minimum height of 36 inches for residential and 42 inches for commercial installations, and use tempered or laminated glass. Ensure the railing can withstand a 200-pound load, with posts spaced no more than 6 feet apart. We recommend that you check with the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) first to make sure you will be in compliance with those codes before ordering. For more detailed information, check out Glass Railing Building Codes.

Which is a stronger mounting style: deck mount or fascia mount?

How High Should Glass Railing Be On A Deck?

The minimum height necessary for railing is 36” in most residential applications. However, some areas may require the higher 42” railing that is required for commercial applications. Other reasons for choosing 42” high railing over 36” high railing is that the top rail is generally above eyeline when seated on a deck allowing for an unobstructed view. It also allows for a greater wind barrier or for more privacy (with the option of frosted glass).
