Description

Monaco is very similar to the Lugano frameless glass barrier system, but is designed to take higher loads, and is the best system to use for commercial projects.

Aluminium system for fascia fixed balustrades. It reflects the trend for sleek flush surfaces, square edges and continuous sight-lines
Creates a seamless blend. When standing on the deck all that is seen 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
Compliant with NZBC clause E2. The Monaco base channel is face fixed and sits 25mm off the substrate. Compressed EPDM fixing sealing washers are easily located against the substrate
Anotec powder coated with a 10 year warranty. There are many powder coat colours to choice from to match the colour scheme
