Glass Railings

Glass railings deliver a clean, unobstructed view while providing the safety and structural integrity required by Nevada building codes. Kelly’s Glass & Mirror Co. designs and installs custom glass railing systems for residential and commercial properties throughout Las Vegas. Whether you’re upgrading a staircase, adding safety to a deck or balcony, or enhancing a mezzanine level, our team creates railing systems that are as strong as they are beautiful.

Benefits of Glass Railings

  • Unobstructed Views: Glass railings preserve sightlines in ways that wood, metal, or cable alternatives cannot — especially important on pool decks, patios, and elevated spaces.
  • Modern, High-End Appeal: Frameless glass railings are a signature feature of luxury residential and commercial design.
  • Low Maintenance: Tempered glass doesn’t rust, rot, or corrode. Occasional cleaning is all that’s needed to keep railings looking their best.
  • Increased Property Value: Glass railings are a premium upgrade that enhances curb appeal and marketability.
  • Code-Compliant Safety: We install railing systems that meet Nevada residential and commercial building code requirements for height, load capacity, and glass specification.

Glass Railing Styles We Install

Frameless Glass Railings

The most sought-after option. Glass panels are secured with base shoe hardware or standoff posts with no top or side frame, creating a completely open appearance. Ideal for pools, patios, decks, and stairways.

Semi-Frameless Railings

A top handrail is paired with glass panels supported by posts at the ends and panel joints. This provides structural reinforcement while maintaining most of the visual openness of a frameless system.

Post-Mounted Glass Railings

Glass panels are set between metal posts at regular intervals. This style balances the visual lightness of glass with the added structure of a post system — a popular choice for decks and commercial applications.

Staircase Railings

Custom glass railing systems designed to follow the pitch of a staircase. We fabricate panels cut to the correct angle for a continuous, flush appearance along any stair configuration.

Interior Railings

Glass railings for interior loft edges, mezzanine levels, open stairways, and second-floor overlooks in both residential and commercial settings.

Our Process

  1. Site Assessment: We evaluate the installation location, measure the span, and assess substrate and anchoring requirements.
  2. Design & Specification: We recommend glass thickness, hardware type, and post configuration based on the site and local code requirements.
  3. Custom Fabrication: Panels are cut, tempered, and finished to specification.
  4. Professional Installation: Our team installs base hardware, sets the panels, and secures all components to code.
  5. Inspection & Sign-Off: We inspect the finished installation for alignment, stability, and compliance before completing the job.
