Glass Balustrades in Leeds
We design, manufacture and install frameless glass balustrades across Leeds and the surrounding area — city-centre apartment balconies, staircases and landings, raised decking and roof terraces. Everything is surveyed, made and fitted by our own team. We do not subcontract the installation.
Our workshop is in Killinghall, just outside Harrogate, which puts most of Leeds within about forty minutes. Book a free survey and we will quote in writing, with no obligation.
Where we work in Leeds
We regularly work across north Leeds — Roundhay, Alwoodley, Adel, Chapel Allerton, Moortown, Headingley and Horsforth — along with Bramhope, Otley, Guiseley, Yeadon, Wetherby, Garforth, Pudsey and Morley, and apartment developments around the city centre and the waterfront.
What we install
Frameless glass balustrades
Toughened laminated glass set into a base channel or fixed on stand-offs, with no posts breaking up the run. Used on balconies, terraces, decking, mezzanines and stairwells where the point is to keep the view.
Juliet balconies
A single span of glass across a set of doors, fixed back to the structure. Common on Leeds new-builds and on loft conversions where there is no room for a walk-on balcony. See our balconies and balustrades page.
Glass staircases and landings
Glass in place of spindles on an existing staircase, or a full feature staircase with oak or steel. More on our feature staircases page.
Decking and roof terraces
Glass balustrade on composite or timber decking, including stepped runs and returns. Low maintenance, and it keeps the garden in view rather than fencing it off.
How an installation works
1. Free survey. We measure on site and work out how the balustrade needs to be fixed. 2. Structural calculations. Included with every job, so the balustrade is specified for the loading it has to carry. 3. Manufacture. Glass is toughened and laminated to the sizes from survey. 4. Installation. Fitted by our own team, usually in a day for a domestic run.
Older and newer property in Leeds
Leeds housing stock varies enormously and the fixing detail changes with it. A stone or brick parapet on a Victorian terrace in Headingley takes a different fixing from a timber deck in Alwoodley or a steel balcony edge on a city-centre apartment. That gets worked out at survey rather than on the day of the fit.
What a glass balustrade costs
Cost comes down to the length of the run, the glass specification and how it is fixed. A single Juliet balcony is a very different job from a twelve-metre terrace run with returns and a gate. We do not publish a price per metre because it would be misleading — we survey first, then quote in writing.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover all of Leeds?
Yes, and the surrounding towns. We are based near Harrogate, so Leeds is a routine journey for us rather than a special trip.
How long does an installation take?
Most domestic balustrades are fitted in a day. Longer terrace runs, or jobs needing scaffold or access equipment, take longer and we will say so when we quote.
Do I need building regulations approval?
A balustrade acting as a barrier has to meet the relevant loading and height requirements, and we will tell you what applies to your job at survey. Parts of Headingley, Chapel Allerton and Roundhay sit in conservation areas, so if you are altering the front of a property it is worth checking with Leeds City Council before work starts.
Is the glass safe?
We use toughened laminated glass. If a pane is ever damaged the interlayer holds the glass in place rather than letting it drop.
Can you match an existing balustrade?
Usually. Bring us photographs and measurements at survey and we will tell you honestly whether we can match it or whether replacing the run will look better.
