Glass Panel Railing

Available in a number of tints, they create the perfect windbreak without any loss of view. White obscure glass and many other patterned glasses are available to create privacy screens. Glass panels are excellent for exterior decks, balconies and stairs, yet sleek and elegant for interior railings.

You can extend your patio seasons to earlier Springs and longer Falls, by raising your glass panel railing system height to act as a wind break - a popular option for those that utilize patio fire places, hot tubs, and/or propane space heaters.

Options & Configurations

Traditional

This is our 'standard' railing configuration. It utilizes our smaller top rails to pass over our intermediate posts and butt to the sides of larger end posts. Installations done in this manner have far fewer cuts required and allows for the most flexibility.

Post to Post

Post to post is just that, our top rails run and end at each post on a run. This is often chosen for aesthetic purposes.

Over the Top

Our smaller top rails can run over the top of our intermediate posts; likewise our larger top rails can run over the top of our 1-3/4" and 2-1/2" posts, with field mitered corners. The result is a smooth continuous line that is a very popular form of installation.

Double Top Rail

This is an attractive utilization of our railing system which combines our method of going post to post with going over the top.

Top Rails

Our 9000, 9001 and 9036 rail caps are fitted to the vertical post as a top guard or intermediate rail. The 9039 rail cap is designed to act as a grab rail in hand rail situations.

The 9002 and 9023 caps can run over our 1-3/4” and 2-1/2” posts. 9023 and 9036 are designed to butt cleanly with our 3-1/2” post. The 9002 and 9023 rail caps are semi-flat top railing - popular by those that prefer the 2 x 4 look and feel.

Post Sizes

We offer 3 sizes of vertical posts: 3.5" (9060), 2.5" (9006), and 1.75" (9005). CrystaLite will select the appropriate post size and spacing to meet code requirements, exposure criteria, with wind speeds up to 120 mph.

Mounting Options

Deck Mount

Mechanically fastened with stainless steel screws for maximum strength. Grooved bottom surface allows for a greater area for wet seal to adhere to for applications that require sealant; such as water-proof membranes.

Side Mount

A bit more time required for installation, but side mounted installations maximizes the footprint of your deck.

Corner Bracket

Allows for single post in the corners of side mounted installations which reduces materials needed, thus cost; and allows for desired aesthetics of a single post. Bracket designed for 0 - 1/2" spacing. Accepts custom angles.

Ramp / Stringer Mount

Custom pitched base plates are available for slopes and ramps (such as stair jacks) when required.

Gate Hardware

CrystaLite gates utilize the finest quality latch and hinge hardware on the market to ensure your gate will be strong and secure. We have a large variety of hardware to accommodate any installation need; such as pool enclosures, yard fencing, and security gates. Shown are our most commonly utilized gate hardware.

             

9020 Grab Rail

with Adjustable Pivot

The 9020 Grab Rail system is constructed with the same aircraft grade 6063-T6 aluminum alloy as the primary railing system. We have developed a clean and sleek set of accessory components to allow for easy field attachement; including seemless splice connections for long runs and rotating angle mounting brackets.

Our new Adjustable Pivot provides complete flexibility for field installations, while creating near seamless transitions and connections. The Adjustable Pivot allows for any angle to be created for transitions between stairs and flats; as well as rotate around corners. This Adjustable Pivot is not a bulky "knuckle" but rather a near seamless spliced connection in-line with our 9020 Grab Rail.
