Types Of Juliet Balconies We Offer

A Juliet Balcony is named after the balcony from which Juliet was courted by Romeo in Shakespeare’s play, Romeo &amp; Juliet. A glass Juliet balcony  is not a balcony that you can walk on to but rather a panel of glass that spans the opening and protects against a fall.
To meet building regulations the height of the Juliet balcony should be 1100mm from finished floor level to the top of the barrier. If the Juliet balcony is protecting a fall of 600mm or more (which in most cases it will) it should either have a handrail and/or a laminate glass. In addition, the Juliet balcony will have to pass the required line load test. This is the pressure per meter that the Juliet balcony can withstand before it moves beyond 25mm in its fixings. The required line load test for a Juliet balcony at height is 0.74kN. All of our Juliet balconies are fully tested to the required line load test.
Here at Origin, we supply a wide range of Juliet balconies. We have two frameless systems, Glide Fit and Skyforce. This can be fixed up to spans of 3 meters. It can be fixed to any number of materials, including steel, concrete, UPVC frame, aluminum frame, timber or brickwork. Both systems are fully tested when fixed to steel, concrete, UPVC frame or aluminum frame. The frames can be powder coated to any RAL to match your existing door or window frame. Both systems usually use toughened laminate glass. If the balcony is less than 1.7m it would use toughened laminate glass. If the balcony is more than 1.7m it would use 21.5mm toughened laminate glass.
Our Portia Juliet balcony system, frames the glass at the top and the bottom of the panel of glass with a slotted tube bar. There are four fixings in either corner. A rubber gasket sits between the slotted tube at the top and the bottom of the panel of glass. Our Portia Juliet balcony system is usually sold with 12mm toughened glass. There is a noticeable difference in price between 12mm toughened glass and laminate glass. This makes our Portia Juliet balcony system cheaper than our frameless systems.
Our point fixings are stainless steel bolts that fix the glass directly to the structure of the building. They can be fixed either at the bottom of the panel of glass or at the side of the panel. For Juliet balconies that are over 2.5m wide, we would recommend fixing  beneath the opening. The Juliet balcony needs to be 1.1m from finished floor level to the top of the barrier. The height of the panel itself should be about 1.4m with 300mm beneath the reveal and 1100mm above the reveal.
