The original height-adjustable glass balustrade. A simple press raises the upper glass panel to create instant wind protection — lower it just as easily when the weather improves. Designed and manufactured in Sweden by ErgoSafe, ClickitUp combines glass, aluminium and structural glazing bonding with no visible posts or fixings. Design-protected since 2014. Available for ground-level patios, balconies and as a retrofit inside existing railings.

Stainless steel spigots fixed to the floor hold toughened glass panels at the base — no frame, no visible channel, no interrupted sightline. The cleanest floor line of any glass fixing method. Round-base clamps in satin-finish stainless, available in 304 or marine-grade 316. Ideal for outdoor use where drainage matters and the frameless look is the priority.

Toughened glass panels held within a stainless modular post frame — round or square profile posts with glass adapter fixings between. The structural confidence of a post system with the open aesthetic of glass infill. Available in 304 or 316 stainless to suit indoor or exposed outdoor applications. Flexible by design — accommodates corners, steps and changes in level.

Glass panels fixed to stainless modular posts via adapters at stand-off height — no floor penetration, no base channel. The right choice where spigots can’t be used: mezzanine decks, retrofits and interior applications where the floor structure rules out a ground fix.
