Recreational spaces – terraces, gazebos or verandas, or whatever else they may be called – have the same basic function – to make sure that the people who are there enjoy the time they spend there. Therefore, it needs to be really well constructed and glazed, so that it can be enjoyed all year round, in all weathers.
A glass terrace is a spectacular structure for the house or outdoor area. Glass terraces are also suitable for commercial activities or simply for work and business meetings. You won’t even know you are working! The comfortable environment and the beautiful view through the transparent walls are some of the most important reasons why such a terrace can become a much-loved space.
Features of a glass terrace
Glazing terraces is indeed a great solution and has a number of advantages due to its features. All the more so as a glazed pergola has exceptional functionality and creates a luxurious aesthetic. There are various options for a glass terrace: framed or frameless, vertical, horizontal, guillotine, sliding, etc. Frameless glazing is perhaps even more suitable if you want a full panoramic view, as the frame design allows it.
Terrace partitions come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. No matter how many pergolas are glazed, they are probably not identical. This is because it is possible to install a unique structure according to the customer’s wishes and desires. So it is possible to choose the really best solution.
Some of the most popular terraces are those with vertical and sliding glazing. This is very convenient because during the summer days it can be used as a pergola, with a canopy and the walls open (retracted), while in the evening or when the weather is cold, it is worth closing the glass “doors” and sliding them back. These gazebos can be frameless (e.g. sliding panoramic frameless glazing). However, they are also available with a frame, but in this case the panoramic view will be slightly different than when there is no frame. It is also nice that there are different versions of the glass terrace – cold and warm – depending on seasonality and preference.
Another type of glazing for terraces is guillotine glazing – perhaps more elaborate, but with a variety of uses. This glazed space can be used not only as a gazebo at the house, but also as an outdoor café or even for other commercial activities. It opens and closes really conveniently, just horizontally but not vertically. And there are versions: warm, cold. Different types of glass (e.g. toughened) available.
More solutions can be implemented using glass structures, which are very practical, convenient and easy to maintain. They are installed to act as walls or fences, or even as a structure. It is a high-end design, simply unparalleled elegance.
Whichever option is chosen, this space offers a feeling of infinite comfort. Happy are those who have such a place close to the house for relaxation (and more!). After all, such verandas can be used for many different purposes. Moreover, they are very tightly sealed thanks to the high-end glazing materials used. The control can be automated, which in turn adds even more comfort by making it easier to use the glass terrace.
Quality glass terrace – at what price?
The glass terrace can be sized and made of different materials, as well as with different accessories, additional functionality and automatic control. These are probably the most important reasons why the price of a glass terrace varies. It is worth looking at the type of glazing and the sub-type, e.g. sliding, guillotine, frameless, vertical, horizontal, etc. This is because the prices of such pergolas vary and fluctuate.
