Modern balcony styles favour glazed balustrading
VBS is at the forefront of innovation and value engineering in the design, manufacture and installation of stainless steel, glass and aluminium balustrades and Juliette balconies.
Without the need for vertical posts, the aluminium hand-railing provides all the required strength and support for safety, but at around a third to half of the cost of structural glazing.
"Very pleased and delighted with the response," was the verdict from Balcon's Managing Director, Effi Wolff.
"The show delivered for us in terms of the people we wanted to meet and to demonstrate the uniqueness of an attractive balustrading solution that, unlike railings, allows in light and doesn't obstruct views to the outside.
"Visitors were impressed with the versatility and beauty of the Balcony system that makes it so different from what is currently available in the UK.
As a result, we're looking forward to completing a number of exciting and prestigious projects in the coming months," he added.
Balcony's affordable and innovative system offering new and original design concepts for curved openings and enclosures also created interest on the stand.
Using curved instead of segmented or straight glass for patio doors adds extra beauty, space and light to any property.
Already sold in over 10 countries on three continents, Balcony?s curved doors are an original, inspiring and different solution.
Curved sliding patio doors are available in any radius, size or colour and the system has full technical assistance from planning to installation.
In two, three, four and six door configurations with multi-point locking, the thermally-broken aluminium sections can accommodate double-glazing up to 30mm thick.
A composite wood and aluminium version is also available.
Fully tested and compliant with BS 6180 and BS 6399 balustrading standards, Balcony's systems can produce virtually any design or shape in straight or curved glass for a clear panoramic view.
The high quality 6063 T5 extruded aluminium profiles are available in bronze and natural satin finishes, or can be powder-coated in any RAL colour.
