Glass deck railings
Not asking for a cost to install them, etc. But we want to replace out current pickets with glass for wind blockage and a better view. As well on a west side we want to put privacy glass and make it taller to block the one neighbours view. Im up in the air on doing it myself, or hiring someone. Ive got some calls and emails in already to see.
1. Do it myself, what are some good brands of railing systems. I see Rona has the Regal line, which I have used and installed in the past, but just the pickets. Dont have a Lowes locally, but have a Home Depot
2. Privacy glass, is pebbled style the only privacy style there is, or is there such a thing as one way glass for this scenario. Id prefer to not lose my view on the west side, but will scarifice it for neghbour privacy
3. Framed or frameless. I assume framed would be more sturdy for wind blockage.
We have no stairs to contend with, its all straight runs. My current railings are all one piece, so I cant just swap the pickets for glass, like the Regal ones.
Dimensions are 67.5" on the east, 164.5" to the south, and 135" to the west. 111" from the ceiling to the floor.
Any help would be appreciated, or a cost if you did get it installed, although I know those prices can vary from province to province. Or what brands to stay away from
Picture is a general idea of what Im looking at doing, just opposite side for the privacy and not wrap around. But that my layout with a covered deck and the walk out below
