Glass Railing Base Shoe Systems

P+P Artec’s sleek glass railing base shoe system offers a modern, floating aesthetic that maximizes views and natural light for homes and businesses.

Enhance Your Surroundings Modern Commercial Handrails

P+P Artec’s glass railing base shoe system allows you to transform any space with a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic. Without the need for visible posts, the glass panels seem to float seamlessly from the floor or deck, offering a modern look that maximizes both views and natural light.

Chosen by architects for its ultra-modern, floating glass design, this system eliminates vertical supports to enhance sight lines and create the illusion that the tempered safety glass panels are stand-alone structural elements. It’s particularly popular for residential projects like penthouse balconies and rooftop terraces, where it offers unobstructed views and makes spaces feel more expansive by not blocking sunlight.

Durability of Our Glass Railings for Stairs
The structure behind the base shoe system that secures our glass panels is crafted from high-strength extruded aluminum, ensuring durability, strength, and corrosion resistance. These base shoes are precision laser cut to perfectly fit laminated glass, providing secure and long-lasting installations. The design features pre-drilled holes for anchoring to various surfaces. They can also be installed in a recessed channel for a perfectly flush finish, contributing to the system’s sleek appearance.
Secured and Safe Glass Panel Fitment
Our systems use tempered safety glass panels that are heat-treated and tested to adhere to stringent building standards. These glass sections with polished edges slide effortlessly into the base shoe channels. Customizations such as integrated lighting or decorative finishes are available for an enhanced appearance. Epoxy adhesive and set screws ensure a secure fit within the base shoes, maintaining a clean look without visible hardware.
