Frameless Glass Railings
in Cambridge.
Frameless glass railings in Cambridge are templated on the stair or the deck, then tempered to that shape. Brick houses near the older centres and newer lots farther out do not share a railing size.

A glass stair railing on brick
The photograph is a Cambridge exterior stair: wood treads, a brick wall, black spigots, glass with no top rail. Turns are the hard part. Each change of direction is its own panel, cut from a template. Tempered glass cannot be nibbled to fit once it is on the truck.
The metal that stays in the weather is Duplex 2205. Panels are clear 12 mm unless a neighbour's window sits on that side, in which case that bay can be frosted. Low-iron is listed only when you request it.
Older brick and newer lots
Cambridge is one city made from Galt, Preston, and Hespeler. Older streets still have narrow brick houses, side yards, and stairs that were built to fit the lot. Newer subdivisions have a rear deck and a straighter edge. A glass deck railing on those newer lots is the spigot system along the deck board. On the older streets the same glass is more often the stair in the photograph. Glass railings in Cambridge are quoted from the address, not from which of the three former towns the street used to be.
The City of Cambridge decides if a permit is required. Guard glass follows the Ontario Building Code, Division B, Subsection 9.8.8, tempered to CAN/CGSB-12.1.
The Grand River runs through the city. A lot that drops toward the water is measured bay by bay, at the heights that are actually there.
If the glass has to enclose a pool, say so at the measure. That quote is separate from a deck guard.
Aluminum glass railings start from $160 per linear foot installed.

The second photograph is a Cambridge interior stair that curves. Glass panels follow that curve on black spigots, with a wood handrail. A curve cannot be approximated with one flat rectangle. The template records the radius. Interior pins, where the glass leaves the tread and meets a stringer, are 316 stainless.
Custom glass railings, stair or deck
Projects start from $180 per linear foot installed; the final price depends on the railing system and glass you choose. HST is extra. A curved stair is not the same invoice as a straight deck of equal length. Both start from that figure. The difference is in the lines after we measure.

FAQ
Cambridge questions, answered.
What is the glass railing cost in Cambridge?
HST is extra. Curved stairs and straight decks share that starting figure and not the same final lines. The free measure writes the difference.
Are Galt, Preston, and Hespeler separate quotes?
No. They are Cambridge. One measure, one quote, the City of Cambridge if a permit comes up.
Can a curved panel be swapped for a flat one to save time?
No. A curved stair gets curved glass, templated to that flight.
Who decides on a permit?
The City of Cambridge. We will not promise an outcome before the city does.
What warranty do you give?
5-year warranty on labour and 5-year warranty on hardware.
