FRAMELESS GLASS BALUSTRADE AT PETS CORNER
Designed, Supplied & Installed
OVERVIEW
Pets Corner, a multi-functional pet store offering veterinary care, grooming services, and retail shopping, faced a unique architectural challenge. The raised car park needed to be safely and stylishly connected to the store’s main entrance to ensure smooth and secure access for both staff and customers. With frequent foot traffic and the added risk of wet weather, safety was a top priority – but so too was maintaining the clean, modern aesthetic of the facility.
CHALLENGE
The primary challenge was to develop a safety-conscious solution that wouldn’t detract from the visual appeal of Pets Corner’s contemporary design. The connecting walkway required a barrier system that could withstand heavy use and varied weather conditions, while also being visually unobtrusive and architecturally sympathetic. The goal was clear – deliver a structurally sound installation that seamlessly blended with the existing building while promoting maximum safety and accessibility.
SOLUTION
360 GSS took a strategic, detail-oriented approach from the outset. After a thorough site evaluation, our team collaborated closely with Pets Corner to design a frameless glass balustrade system that offered strength, durability, and aesthetic harmony. We selected high-quality laminated and tempered glass panels, paired with corrosion-resistant stainless steel stand-offs, to ensure longevity and compliance with safety standards. The installation was carefully planned to avoid disruption to daily operations. Each element – from foundation preparation and panel alignment to the final secure mounting – was executed with precision. Our structural engineers ensured full compliance with all relevant safety regulations, making the solution robust enough to handle high footfall in all conditions.
RESULT
The finished frameless glass balustrade delivered outstanding results for Pets Corner. It provided a secure and visually appealing link between the raised car park and the store’s main entrance, immediately enhancing the customer experience. The clear glass panels maintained open sightlines, preserving the airy, modern feel of the space while offering the protection required. Feedback from both the client and their customers has been overwhelmingly positive. Many noted how the balustrade added to the professionalism and welcoming nature of the facility. The successful completion of this project underscored our ability to meet the needs of high-traffic commercial environments without compromising on design.
CONCLUSION
This project stands as a testament to 360 GSS’s capability to deliver exceptional results in complex commercial settings. By blending safety, functionality, and modern design, we created a solution that not only solved a logistical problem but elevated the overall environment of the Pets Corner facility. Our work here reinforces our reputation as specialists in architectural glass installations – trusted by clients who value innovative design, safety compliance, and superior craftsmanship.
