Glass Railings, Stair Treads and Countertops

Viewrail and ThinkGlass, set on steel and wood we build in our Galena shop.

Glass, Set on Our Steel

A glass railing keeps the view open. A glass stair tread lets light fall through to the floor below. A glass bar top glows when the lights go down. We install glass railings and stair treads from two makers we stand behind: Viewrail for glass and cable railing systems, and ThinkGlass for thick fused glass countertops, stair treads and panels. The glass comes from them. The design, the steel and wood that hold it, and the install come from us.

Floating staircase with wood treads on a steel stringer and a frameless Viewrail glass railing

We are a Viewrail certified installer. Frameless glass railings for stairs, lofts, balconies and decks, plus cable railing. We measure, order and install the system, and build any custom steel or wood around it in our shop.

ThinkGlass backlit glass stair treads with a stainless cable railing

Thick fused glass, made by hand in Canada. Countertops and bar tops 1½ to 2 inches thick, stair treads 2 to 4 inches, with texture and LED lighting built in if you want it. We build the steel and wood it sits on.

How a Glass Project Works With Us

1. The Call

Tell us what you have in mind: a railing, a staircase, a countertop, a bar. Viewrail, ThinkGlass or both. We ask the right questions to scope the job and give you a realistic idea of cost before anything else happens.

2. Site Visit

We come to you. Ryan measures the space and checks what the glass will mount to: the stairs, the deck, the floor, the framing. Glass is made to exact size, so nothing gets ordered off a guess.

3. Design and Approval

You see drawings of the glass and the steel or wood around it before anything is ordered. Every dimension, finish and mounting detail is confirmed in writing.

4. Build and Install

We build the stair stringers, bases or framing in our Galena shop. Then our crew installs the steel and the glass. We do not leave until it is level, solid and finished right.

Glass does not flex and it does not hide mistakes. If a post is out of plumb, the panel will not seat. Ryan spent years as a union ironworker setting steel to tight tolerances, and every glass install gets that standard.
