Where PiKasso Works

Best for commercial, retrofit and mid-range residential

Decking & Terraces

OnLevel’s PiKasso is an aluminium glass post system that works great on decking and terraces.

Commercial balcony balustrade →

Retrofit & Refurb

Existing balcony refurbishment where the slim aluminium profile is easier to retrofit than stainless modular alternatives.

Retrofit balcony balustrade →

Mid-Range Residential

Family homes where a fully-stainless glass system would be over-spec. PiKasso lands at roughly 40% less than stainless equivalents.

Common questions about the aluminium glass post system - PiKasso

What makes PiKasso different?

Material, installation speed and cost. PiKasso uses precision-engineered aluminium rather than stainless steel — significantly lighter and more cost-effective while still being fully tested and load rated. The posts arrive fully assembled with clamps pre-fitted, so there’s no on-site fabrication required. And because PiKasso is held in stock for next day delivery, there are no lead time delays. For projects where stainless steel is not a hard requirement, PiKasso delivers the same clean glass post aesthetic at lower cost and faster.

PiKasso is compatible with 10mm toughened and 13.52mm toughened and laminated glass. Glass panels are supplied cut to your specified dimensions. Confirm your panel sizes at quote stage and we’ll supply glass matched to the PiKasso clamp specification.

Yes. PiKasso is suitable for both internal and external applications. The satin anodized aluminium finish is weather resistant and suitable for outdoor environments. For coastal or highly corrosive environments, confirm your location at quote stage and the team will advise on any additional treatment or alternative specification.

Fix the pre-assembled posts to the floor substrate. Set the toughened glass panels into the pre-fitted clamps. Finish with a top rail if specified. That’s it. No welding, no specialist fabrication, no complex on-site adjustments. A competent general contractor can install a complete PiKasso system without specialist trades. Full installation documentation is supplied with every order.

Yes. Satin anodized finish is standard across the full range. Powder coat is available in custom RAL colours for projects where a specific colour match is required — ideal for commercial projects, hospitality venues and residential projects with a defined colour scheme. Confirm your RAL reference at quote stage.
