Features and benefits:

  • F-shaped and Y-shaped base shoes for unfinished floors and for installing at (top mount) or beyond (fascia mount) the edge of a surface.
  • Minimal use of anchors in base shoe installation.
  • A choice of base shoe fixing methods (mechanical anchors, stud anchors and cost-effective alternatives).
  • Optional cladding and shoe shims for levelling uneven surfaces.
  • Exclusive adjustable Q-disc system for simplified installation, and glass realignment by up to 1.2° from the vertical. Q-disc has been awarded the prestigious Red Dot Design Award.
  • Suitable for glass 16.76–25.52 mm thick, enabling the creation of glass railings for stairs or balconies that require more sturdiness.
  • The drill holes in the base shoes have tolerances that make it easier to carry out installation on uneven floors.
  • Broad choice of possible anchors for fixing the base shoes to the floor.
  • The design uses markings and a clicking sound to signal correct installation.
  • All the installation work can be carried out from the inner side of the balcony railing without the need for scaffolding.
  • Glass balustrade trims are available for various mounting situations.
  • Can be combined with the Q-lights range: handrails with spotlights (Q-lights Spotlight), and handrails or cap rails with linear LED strips (Q-lights Linear Light).
  • Consult manufacturer for certificate details; detailed testing reports and calculations available on request.
