Fix Point System
The Fix Point railing system is a type of glass railing system in which the glass is connected to the structure by point connections. These connections are usually made of stainless steel and are connected to the wall or floor with metal buttons or pins.
Advantages
- Stunning transparency and beauty: The highest level of transparency and the least visual interference due to point and delicate connections.
- Design flexibility: Possibility of implementing curved or complex geometric railings and facades.
- Relatively lightweight: Less weight than traditional framed systems.
- Unobstructed view: Providing a completely open and unobstructed view in the railing system.
Disadvantages
- High cost: Using quality fittings and requiring Precise drilling in glass.
- Complexity of calculations and execution: Precise design of the hole locations requires high engineering skills.
- Requirement of glass with holes: Limitation in the choice of glass types and sensitivity in drilling.
- Sealing challenges: Managing the sealing at the connection points of the fittings to the glass and the structure requires high precision.
- Repair and maintenance: Replacing the glass or fittings can be more complicated than some other systems.
The Fix Point system is most often used in projects where the main priority is beauty, transparency and a modern and luxurious atmosphere. For railings, this system is very common because it offers a completely open and unobstructed appearance.
