- Offer a versatile solution suitable for various architectural styles, from contemporary homes to commercial spaces.
Options-Styles
InvisiRail offers a contemporary and minimalist approach to railing systems, specializing in glass railings that create an open, unobstructed view. Their core design philosophy centers on the seamless integration of glass panels with discreet structural supports, maximizing light and visual spaciousness.
The style is characterized by its clean lines and the prominent use of tempered glass, which provides both safety and an elegant aesthetic. This makes InvisiRail a popular choice for modern residential and commercial spaces, including decks, balconies, staircases, and patios.
Style Options:
- Glass Type: InvisiRail primarily utilizes tempered glass. This safety glass is significantly stronger than standard glass and designed to shatter into small, dull pieces if broken, reducing the risk of injury.
- Glass Thickness: While specific options may vary, tempered glass for railing systems is typically offered in thicknesses that meet safety and building code requirements for structural integrity.
- Mounting Systems: The defining feature of InvisiRail's style is its mounting hardware. These systems are engineered to be as unobtrusive as possible, appearing to "float" the glass. Common mounting styles include:
- Base Shoe (Recessed Channel): This system involves a channel or "shoe" that is typically mounted to the floor or deck surface. The glass panels are inserted into this channel and secured from the sides or top with set screws, creating a very clean look with minimal visible hardware along the top edge.
- Stand-offs: These are cylindrical or square metal posts that attach to the side of the glass panels and then to the structural substrate. While more visible than a base shoe, they offer a distinct aesthetic and can provide a subtle separation between the glass and the supporting structure.
- Posts (with Clamps): In some configurations, metal posts may be used for structural support, with specialized clamps designed to hold the glass panels securely without obscuring the view. These posts are often slender and made from materials like aluminum or stainless steel to maintain a minimalist appearance.
- Hardware Finishes: The visible hardware components, such as the base shoe channels, stand-offs, and post caps, are typically available in a range of finishes to complement the surrounding architecture. Common finishes include:
- Anodized Aluminum (various shades)
- Powder-coated finishes (in a selection of standard colors)
- Stainless Steel
- Top Rail (Optional): While many InvisiRail installations are designed for a frameless look, an optional top rail can be incorporated for added hand support or a different design element. These are typically slender and made from metal to maintain the system's clean aesthetic.
The overall aesthetic is one of transparency and light, designed to enhance rather than detract from the surrounding environment. The focus is on the glass itself, supported by intelligently engineered, low-profile hardware.
