Our Lugano Pool Fence system is our most popular cantilevered frameless glass pool fence.
- LUGANO is a aluminium system for fascia fixed balustrades. It reflects the trend for sleek flush surfaces, square edges and continuous sightlines.
- LUGANO creates a seamless blend. When standing on the deck all you see is glass spanning up from the edge of the deck.
- All the fixings are concealed beneath the face plate which can be powder coated any colour to blend in with the building structure.
- The LUGANO base channel is face fixed and sits 25mm off the substrate. This creates a cavity for water to run off the floor surface to egress away from the pool or spa enclosure
