Commercial Glass Railings & Glass Handrails
A glass railing keeps people safe while leaving views and natural light open. CBE Glass builds and installs frameless stair railings, balcony and rooftop guards, glass handrails and interior glass guards for commercial and residential properties in Washington DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia.
Glass railing systems
- Frameless railings set in a base shoe (U-channel)
- Standoff-mounted and point-supported glass railings
- Stair railings topped with wood or stainless rails and handrails
- Glass guards for rooftop terraces and balconies
- Interior guards for lobbies, atriums and mezzanine edges
- Glass pool enclosures and windscreens
Safe, code-compliant and clean-looking
Every railing uses tempered or laminated safety glass and hardware rated for code loads. We measure each opening on site and set every panel level and plumb so the railing looks sharp and passes inspection. Examples include the Capitol East glass railings in Washington DC, glass guards inside the DC Public Library and stair glass at an INOVA hospital.

Is a glass railing really strong?
Yes. Structural tempered or laminated glass that is anchored correctly meets the building code loads for guards and handrails.
Do you install glass railings outside?
Yes. Our crews install exterior glass guards on rooftops, balconies and terraces using hardware that resists corrosion.
