Guillotine glass systems
Vertically sliding glass panels for terraces, restaurants and balconies.
Guillotine systems move glass panels up and down, so a terrace or restaurant front can be opened or closed as the weather changes.
Enter the size of each opening and email us a photo of the space.
How a guillotine system works
Glass panels slide vertically in a frame. Lowered, they close the space against wind and rain; raised, they open it up while keeping a low glass barrier. Motorised systems move the panels at the touch of a button.
Where they are used
- Restaurant and cafe terraces, to use outdoor seating in more weather
- Balconies and winter gardens
- Under pergolas, to close the sides of a bioclimatic pergola
Why vertical rather than sliding
Vertical panels open without taking floor space for stacking, and the lower panel can stay closed as a wind screen while the upper part is open.
How to ask for a price
- Measure the width and height of each opening.
- Choose motorised or manual operation.
- Send photos of the space, including the floor and the structure above.
- Tell us whether the space is covered.
Questions we are asked
What glass is used in guillotine systems?
Safety glass, so the panels are safe if broken. Ask us about the build-up for your opening size.
Can a guillotine system be fitted under an existing roof?
Usually yes, if the structure above can carry the frame. Send photos so we can check.
