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.

They can also be installed in a recessed channel for a perfectly flush finish, contributing to the system’s sleek appearance.

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.
