Glass is the ideal material to give your staircase and hallway the perfect lift. From laser cut glass that effortlessly graces any space, to stunning glass spindles for the very latest look, our designers can work with you to create glass stairs that truly are an architectural delight.

Balustrades support staircases and provide safety. While various materials can be used to design a balustrade, glass balustrades have become extremely popular in recent years because of their countless benefits. Glass balustrades make a striking choice in modern architecture and interior design as they can help to create the illusion of space in a building, allowing light to shine through. In addition, they are easy to keep clean and exceptionally durable.

The versatility of glass means that it goes with almost any complementing material and your options for design are just about endless. If your hallway is narrower than you would like, or lacks natural light, then glass balustrades can create an open plan aesthetic with ease. With a little creative imagination from our leading design experts, a new glass stair design can breathe life into any space.

You might opt for a whole glass balustrade or choose a look that’s a little more subtle. There are a variety of different options available when it comes to glass stair railings, and our designers are always on hand to help you decide. You can keep it simple with the clean lines of large glass panels, or add understated detailing with elegant glass spindles. Alternatively, you could experiment with metals by opting for a steel and glass staircase or create a more angular piece of architecture with a framed glass balustrade.

Considering how imposing stairs can be, it’s essential to create as much light and space as possible, particularly in a part of the home where every inch counts. When transforming stairs with a glass staircase, it’s important to determine where the natural light is coming from. This could be a large feature window at the top of the stairs, a roof light or an open plan room at the foot of the stairs. Opening up the area using glass paneling enables the light to flood through, creating the illusion of more space around landings and hallways.

Our designers will take you through the many different options you can choose from. For example if you're looking to brighten up your entryway, a glass and oak balustrade will let natural light flood your space, while still offering a design contrast. At Neville Johnson, we create bespoke glass staircases in a wide range of colours and finishes.
