EeStairs’ groovEe is a custom glass balustrade in which laminated tempered glass is placed in pre-formed concrete bases on balconies, patios, and platforms.
In this glass balustrade channel system, the glazing panels rise directly from a secure rubber-sealed channel in the concrete base – without any need for mountings or posts.
In interior settings and most exterior settings.
Yes, because when the groovEe™ glass balustrade channel is used in outdoor situations, the height of the terraces or patios will get increased wind loads if they are high up. EeStairs can advise you if groovEe™ is to be used in high-rise situations.
Yes, EeStairs’ in-house design and engineering team developed the glass balustrade channel system in consultation with construction and concrete experts.
The ideal time is in the building design phase, so that the groovEe™ installation can become a specific element in the construction and fit-out schedule.
You tell EeStairs who will produce the prefabricated concrete elements, and we contact them to explain the technical implementation details with them. We then supply them with the groovEe™ PVC profiles which form the mould for the prefabricated concrete base element. The glass panels are fitted once the concrete base has cured.
We can normally deliver the base moulds quickly from stock. The measured glass panels can usually be delivered to site in about eight weeks.
