Professional frameless balcony glazing throughout Lithuania

We often get asked how much balcony glazing costs and why we usually need to first assess the current situation of the balcony or terrace. Balcony or terrace glazing can be divided into two parts – the lower barrier part and the upper glazing part. In older buildings or renovations, the cost of balcony glazing often depends on the choice of technical solutions rather than the choice of the upper balcony glazing system itself. Most often, the upper balcony glazing system will have less significant price differences in the overall cost of the building's balcony glazing.

The greatest influence on the cost of balcony glazing comes from the solutions for the lower part of the balcony barrier. When calculating the cost of balcony glazing per square meter, it is almost always noticeable that the lower part of the balcony glazing is significantly more expensive than the upper part. This happens because the lower part uses more aluminum profiles, requires rigid fastening details for the barrier, and various solutions are sought for covering the lower part of the balcony. The choice of glass for both the lower and upper parts of the balcony also affects the price. Depending on the needs and situation, the glass can be clear, tinted, or reflective.

• The cheapest balcony glazing solution is when the technical condition of the balcony allows leaving the lower balcony barrier as it is and only installing the new upper glazing system.
• A slightly more expensive option is when the existing barrier's main structures can still be used, with some additional profiles added and new finishing materials applied to the existing barrier.
• The most expensive solution is when the existing balcony situation requires fully dismantling the old lower balcony barriers and replacing them with new ones, which is a more common scenario in older buildings.

Therefore, we will be able to provide an exact cost for your balcony or terrace glazing only after evaluating the current condition of the balcony or terrace and understanding the customer's specific needs. Usually, photos of the situation and a phone call or clarification via email will be sufficient.

That's why we recommend to fill out a short, non-binding inquiry form and get a preliminary price directly from Siteks specialists, who will also answer all your questions.

Places of application

The glazing system of balconies is most suitable for glazing balconies and loggias of new and old apartment buildings. It is also used for glazing terraces, verandas and drums. With such a system, it is possible to easily preserve the facade of the building and create comfort and coziness in the balconies.

Principles of operation

From the outside, this frameless balcony glazing system appears as a continuous glass wall without vertical supports. The glass sections move with the help of rollers along the upper and lower aluminum tracks. The balcony can be fully opened by sliding the glass panels to the side and rotating them towards the wall, where they close together like the pages of a book. This way, they take up little space and remain secure even in strong winds. Each section can be easily cleaned without posing any danger to safety.

Fastening

The aluminum profiles are strong and resistant to atmospheric influences. There are two main aluminum profiles: the upper ALU profile attaches to the upper balcony slab, while the lower profile is fixed to the balcony guardrail (handrail). This installation method allows the existing balcony guardrail to remain unchanged. The main profiles are secured to concrete or brick surfaces with brass screws, and stainless steel fastening elements are used for steel and aluminum structures.

Glass

The Siteks balcony glazing system uses 6-10 mm tempered glass. The edges of the exceptionally strong glass are polished, ensuring the highest level of safety during use. There is no need to mount the glass into additional frames or apply impact-resistant films. The glass is separated by 2-4 mm ventilation gaps. The standard glass width ranges from 500 to 700 mm, which is determined based on the specific situation at the site. Horizontal wheel holders protect the glass elements from bending under strong wind pressure.
