Whether used in high-rise apartment blocks or low-rise dwellings, these frameless or minimal-profile systems contribute to the architectural vision without compromising safety or compliance.
At Advanced Glass, our Juliette balcony solutions are engineered to meet the highest standards of performance and aesthetics. We offer a range of systems suitable for integration into curtain walling or cladding interfaces, ensuring both technical integrity and architectural consistency.
– Non-combustible, fire-rated laminated glass options — ideal for use on high-rise residential buildings where external fire spread must be controlled in line with Approved Document B and relevant BS/EN standards.
– Tested for impact resistance and fall protection in accordance with BS 6180 and other applicable safety regulations.
– Surface-mounted installation options, designed to be fixed directly to masonry, steel, aluminium frames, or cladding substructures.
Juliette balconies are often interfaced with curtain walling, window systems, or rainscreen cladding — and poor coordination can result in costly delays or compliance issues. As a complete envelope contractor, Advanced Glass ensures full integration from design through to installation.
Our scope includes:
– Reviewing and designing interfaces with cladding, windows, and structural openings
– Coordinating fixing methods with supporting structures or framing systems
– Ensuring drainage and thermal breaks are maintained
– Selecting glass types that meet both safety and combustibility standards
Fire safety, weatherproofing, and structural integrity can all be compromised when Juliette balconies are treated as an isolated package. When delivered separately from the main façade, coordination risks increase — particularly around:
– Compartmentation lines, where penetrations or incorrect fixings could breach fire stopping zones
– Drainage paths, where poorly positioned brackets or base channels may lead to water ingress
– Differing product systems, which may be incompatible in terms of fire rating, load performance, or finish
By delivering Juliette balconies as part of our complete façade package, we eliminate these risks and reduce hassle for main contractors and developers. No grey areas, no interface issues — just seamless integration.
Every Juliette balcony installed by Advanced Glass comes with:
– Documented QA inspection reports
– Installation photos to verify correct fixing, sealing, and alignment
– Test evidence for glass type, fixings, and system performance
– Full traceability of fire-rated components where required
Where specified, we can also provide non-combustible laminated glass that meets Class A2-s1, d0 in line with UK regulations for external envelope components on buildings over 18 metres.
– Single-source responsibility for glazing, balustrades, and cladding elements
– Reduced risk of interface gaps or inconsistent specifications
– Faster installation with fewer handovers between trades
– Simplified sign-off process with traceable QA and tested systems
Let Advanced Glass help you deliver a coordinated, compliant, and architecturally refined solution.

Aluminium windows offer durability, low maintenance, excellent thermal efficiency, and modern aesthetics, making them ideal for commercial applications.
Yes, modern aluminium windows feature thermal break technology to improve insulation, achieving low U-values meeting Part L building regulations and often exceeding it.
Options include double or triple glazing, solar control glass, acoustic glass, laminated safety glass, and enhanced security glass, depending on performance needs.
Yes, commercial aluminium windows can be PAS 24 certified and meet Secured by Design standards with multi-point locking systems with reinforced frames.
When properly maintained, aluminium windows can last 30 – 40 years, due to their corrosion resistance and high-quality powder-coated finishes.
Yes, they are available in a wide range of RAL colours, anodised finishes, and different configurations, including casement, tilt-and-turn, and sliding options.
Aluminium windows are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, with high wind load resistance and water-tightness ratings to ensure long-term performance.
Minimal maintenance is needed – just the occasional cleaning and lubrication of moving parts is required to help ensure smooth operation and longevity.
Yes, aluminium is up to 100% recyclable, and many modern aluminium window systems use recycled materials, supporting sustainable building practices.
Lead times vary depending on customisation and project size, but standard windows typically take 12 – 16 weeks for design, manufacturing and delivery.
