Metroview® Channel balustrades

  • Metroview® Channel glass balustrades offer wider, unobstructed views

  • The balustrade hardware can be concealed within the surrounding cladding to obtain a "floating" aesthetic

  • Ideal for decks, balcony's, pool fences and stairs

  • Two fixing options - one sits on top of the balcony or deck (base fix) and the other attaches to the side of the balcony or deck (side fix)

  • 10 year warranty - our Metroview® Channel balustrade system comes with the assurance of warranty on both the glass and hardware for 10 years.

Ask about Metro's EzyClean technology that repels dirt and grime, for easy glass care and maintenance.
