Are there any specific cleaning requirements for SGP laminated glass balustrades?

Regular cleaning with a mild detergent and water is usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive materials to prevent scratches.

Is a handrail necessary for frameless glass balustrades in Australia?

If your balustrade is more than 1m above floor level, building codes require the installation of a handrail. However, a balustrade without a handrail is possible through a Performance Solution under the National Construction Code (NCC), requiring engineering design and certification. Vista View is an approved balustrade system for installation without a handrail.

Are there height restrictions for frameless glass balustrades without a handrail in Australia?

The BCA typically requires residential balustrades to be at least 1000mm in height and 865mm for non-residential buildings. Local variations or specific project requirements may apply, so we advise you check for the most up-to-date information based on your location and project circumstances.

What is the warranty supplied with Vista View?

Vista View is guaranteed against edge delamination for a period of five years. Refer to the Vista View warranty for further details.

What is the typical cost of installing Vista View?
