Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
NSW building rules require balustrades to achieve a minimum finished height of 1000mm.
Our 970mm balustrade glass panels sit on raised spigots, adding approximately 60mm, so the final installed height exceeds the required standard.
Gaps must not allow a 100mm sphere to pass through, as per safety regulations.
Most installers prefer a 30–60mm spacing for a balanced appearance and secure installation.
Yes — a continuous top rail is required when the balustrade is located above ground level.
Ground-floor balustrades generally do not require a handrail, but upper-floor or elevated decks must include one for compliance.
As soon as your order is ready, we will send you a "Ready for Pickup" email to let you know. If you place an order while the store is open, it will typically be ready for pickup within a few hours. If you place an order after your selected store has closed, your order will typically be ready for pickup shortly after the store opens the next morning. Store hours may vary by location.
Core drilling typically involves creating a 70–80mm diameter hole at a depth of 100–150mm, depending on your spigot model.
Once levels are checked, position the spigots and secure them using a non-shrink grout.
A common method is to place each spigot 200–300mm from the nearest edge of the panel.
You can also use a simple calculation: panel width ÷ 6 (e.g., a 1200mm panel ≈ 200mm).
Additional spacing rules:
- Maximum distance between spigots: 1200mm
- Panels larger than 1800mm should sit on three spigots
