True advances in balconies and balustrading are rare, but Balconette’s Aerofoil Infinity Screen is one such advance which represents a unique innovation.

For too long, customers have had to compromise their designs for the sake of privacy and safety. Adding a privacy screen or extra height to regular glass balustrading had meant relinquishing that perfect design. But Balconette’s team of design engineers have worked to create a pass-through privacy screen that effortlessly complements regular glass balustrading.

Despite its ground-breaking appearance, this unique pass-through glass balustrade system works very simply. Instead of being supported by a network of angled rails and posts, it cuts straight through the Aerofoil handrail, providing privacy and protection from the elements without compromise of design.
