Our key services include:

• Balustrades & Handrails: Custom glass and metal railings for balconies, decks, patios and stairs.

Glass Balustrades and Handrails

We supply high-quality glass balustrades and handrails for stairways, balconies, decks and more. Using 12mm toughened safety glass and corrosion-resistant stainless fittings, our installations are extremely strong and low-maintenance. Frameless designs maximise natural light and provide unobstructed views, creating a modern look that blends indoor and outdoor spaces. Every balustrade is engineered to comply with Australian safety standards (AS1288/AS2208).

Glass Pool Fencing

Bluewater Glass and Balustrades offers stylish glass pool fencing to protect pool areas without blocking views. Our frameless and semi-frameless designs use premium toughened glass panels with secure spigots or clamps. All pool fences comply with NSW regulations – at least 1.2m high with self-closing gates and a non-climbable zone. The clear glass lets you supervise swimmers easily and creates a more open, resort-like feel in your backyard. Our glass pool fences are easy to clean and supported by durable hardware.

Glass Staircases and Architectural Features

Glass staircases are another specialty. By incorporating glass treads or panels, we maximise natural light and visual continuity. This creates a sense of spaciousness and a contemporary look. We use laminated tempered glass that is incredibly sturdy – if ever broken it will crumble into small, harmless pieces. Our custom glass staircases combine these panels with strong metal or timber elements, making any interior staircase a striking design feature.

Custom Shower Screens

Our tailor-made glass shower screens are cut to your exact dimensions for a perfect fit. We offer fully frameless or semi-frameless designs that open up your bathroom and let in more light. Each toughened glass panel is polished and installed with premium hinges and seals, creating a sleek, spa-like enclosure that is simple to maintain.

Metal Fabrication & Privacy Screens

In-house metal fabrication sets us apart. Our workshop can cut and weld stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper or steel to create ramp rails, gates, privacy panels and fencing. This means we can integrate custom metalwork with any glass installation. Our stainless ramp rails meet accessibility codes. Our custom gates and privacy screens can be solid, slatted or decorative to match your design. All metal fixtures are finished to resist corrosion and withstand coastal conditions.
