135
The edge you don't see.
Overview
System 135 is the guard rail reduced to glass alone: structural panels seated in a continuous aluminum base shoe, plumbed after installation by a wedge-lock system instead of shims. It pairs naturally with the 160Y flush sill for terrace edges where floor, opening, and guard read as one plane.
Wedge-lock plumbing
Each panel is plumbed after install with the wedge system — no shims.
Continuous base shoe
One extrusion runs the full guard length, top-mounted or fascia-mounted.
Made for the 160Y
Aligns with the flush sill for uninterrupted terrace edges.
Configurations
Available operating formats for this system.
Base shoe anchored to the slab surface.
Base shoe hung on the slab edge to keep the deck clear.
Continuous glass following the stair pitch.
