Balustrade for the purpose of edge protection requires a backup safety feature. As Pure Vista specialise in frameless balustrade systems, we promote using laminated glass since this provides a second safety feature as required by building regulations (BS 6180:2011), and therefore no handrail is required. The alternative to laminate glass, is the use of a handrail, so these are also available to buy in our web shop. View the handrail installation guide here.
