What Is Structural Glass?

Structural glazing revolutionises architectural design by integrating laminated glass into seamless, frameless structures. From glass walls and ceilings to entire building envelopes, this system maximises natural light while ensuring full structural integrity.

At Minimal Frame Projects, we embrace advanced materials and techniques to deliver modern structural glazing systems that harmonise transparency, strength and elegance — redefining what’s possible in architectural design.

The Architect’s Dream: Limitless Design Potential

Structural glazing is increasingly popular in contemporary construction — and for good reason. It allows architects complete creative freedom while still contributing to a building’s overall structural support.

The result? A sleek, seamless glass façade, flooded with natural light and tailored to your project’s unique architectural vision.

Beyond Aesthetic: Smart, Sustainable Glass Technology

Structural glass systems offer more than just visual appeal. Thanks to innovative glazing technology, these systems also provide:

  • High energy efficiency
  • Impressive sound insulation
  • Resistance to extreme weather
  • Enhanced security and durability
  • Compatibility with smart home systems

It’s the perfect blend of beauty and performance.

The Importance of Expert Fabrication & Installation

We’ve been designing, fabricating and installing structural glass in London, Surrey, and the South East for years. Our in-house team brings an unrivalled level of technical expertise and attention to detail to every project — ensuring that even the most complex installations run smoothly.

 

How Is Structural Glass Made?

Structural glazing typically uses high-performance double or triple glazed panels bonded directly to aluminium or steel framing — often without any visible support structure.

Here’s how it works:

  • Fittings: High-quality stainless steel fixings attach to the inner layer of glass
  • Sealants: Silicone bonding provides strength, stability and weatherproofing
  • Coatings: Optional solar-reflective or silk-printed finishes can be applied to the outer panel
  • Finish: The result is a completely frameless look with maximum light and structural strength

Sliding Door & windows install

We had two Velfac windows, a large picture window, two skylights and a set of 3 sliding minimal frame doors installed. Very happy with the products but the doors are still not fully operating - 2 years on. Pro's: - Nathan, our sales contact was very well informed and provided good advice at the early stages. - Contracts and payment points were all clear - Technical drawings clear - Products are good quality and feel - Bob was quick to attend when we had a big issue after install - Good value Con's: - Builders left to interpret the window requirements - a video walkthrough together would have instilled more confidence to both parties. Even though all worked out fine. - Sliding door product is not operating due to damage arising from previous fixes. Still waiting a fix; communictions ongoing.

Super smooth experience

Super smooth experience! Everyone MFP were easy and honest to work with. The fitting team lead by Jason did an exceptional job craning our glass roof up and over the house! The glass itself is beautiful and was measured to perfection. Top work thank you all!

Typical Structural Glazing System Installations

Explore the many ways structural glass can redefine architecture. From grand façades to minimalist interiors, these bespoke solutions showcase what’s possible when design meets precision engineering.

Frameless glass-box extensions

Structurally strong glazing provides the perfect platform our glass-box extensions that add light and style to your home. With efficient thermal properties, a glass box is warm in winter, yet with as many openings as you require, cool in summer. No longer the realm of traditional conservatories, the glass box has seen major advancements – an extension type that is a popular addition fit to grace any home.

Glass-box extensions utilise high-performance sealants to bond the glass directly to the supporting structure, eliminating the need for visible framing. This system offers a sleek and frameless appearance, enhancing the building’s form, function and modern design.

As our structural glass can be designed and fabricated completely bespoke to your requirements, there is no limit to the size and shape of the end results – let your architect’s imagination run wild.

Internal glass walls and doors

Glass walls provide a sense of openness and transparency, making spaces feel larger and more connected.

This visual continuity is particularly valuable in modern design, fostering collaboration and communication in commercial settings and creating an airy, spacious feel in any home or workplace.

Roof and Skylight glazing

Structural glazing is often employed in rooflights and skylights to maximize natural light within a building. These systems use glass panels supported by a framework to create aesthetically pleasing and functional overhead features that can transform any room (even basements) into a bright, inviting space.

Walk-on-glass

Similarly to rooflights and skylights, walk-on-glass can flood an area below it with natural light. However, walk-on-glass has a far greater capacity for taking load than a standard roof/skylight.

Walk-on-glass is strong and durable, which allows it to be set into flooring surfaces, such as interiors, patios or even driveways! The strength of walk-on-glass allows for pedestrian (and even motor) traffic while introducing an element of sophistication from above and an abundance of natural light below.

Structural Glass Roofs

Utilising structural glass in roofing areas provides a new dimension to your room. Particularly useful in rooms lacking in light due to small or inaccessible windows, or where planning restrictions are in force on external windows, glass roofs literally open up your room to the sky.

Innovative solar glazing advancements ensures your space is maintained at a comfortable temperature, whatever the weather, come rain or shine.

Structural glass roofs can also provide support beams that can be used for the structural integrity of the roof – or just for contemporary decoration.

External Glass Connecting Walls

Imagine a view unimpeded by frames or broken by walls, that you can enjoy whatever the weather? That’s what you get with a glass wall.

Push the boundaries and open up any size room with floor-to-ceiling glazing that lets you appreciate what nature provides for free. Acting as a translucent barrier between your internal space and the beckoning space beyond, glass walls are created to share the two worlds.

Don’t let your imagination limit the endless possibilities that glass walls bring to your home. Create space in claustrophobic rooms, or warmth in other large rooms. Bring personality into a bland open plan design, or light into your bathroom.

Glass Canaopies & Winter Gardens

Glass canopies and winter gardens represent glazing innovations that seamlessly blend functionality with visual appeal. These structures, often constructed with sleek glass façades, serve as elegant entrances or sheltered outdoor spaces, allowing a seamless integration of the indoors with nature.

With an emphasis on transparency, our glass canopies and winter gardens harness natural light to create inviting environments. Whether used as welcoming entryways or tranquil retreats, they add a touch of modern sophistication and a lot more usable outdoor space.

The use of modern, energy efficient structural glass not only provides a visually striking design but also promotes a sense of openness while protecting from the elements all year round.

Glass canopies and winter gardens redefine the intersection of modern architecture and all of nature’s beauty.
