Lumon - construction without external fixings
Working on facade glazing projects in European cities, Lumon OY specialists interact and communicate with architects and designers. The market needs new fencing designs. Lumon OY's management organized a study on the challenges architects face when designing buildings … During interviews, the architects expressed a desire for solid fences, without frames and supporting pillars, which violate the visual integrity of the facades. They recommended creating a structure without external fixings. Thus, a new railing system was created, which is attached to the walls and the bottom slab.
Lumon - fireproof fences
The glazing itself can be made of transparent or non-transparent, even colored glass. Continuous attachment to the bottom plate prevents smoke and odors from drawing in from adjacent balconies. The fencing materials are fireproof and therefore the new fencing prevents the penetration of fire and the spread of fire on the balconies.
Lumon - one frameless design
and a proven simple on-site installation scheme
It was necessary to provide for a special glazing installation scheme. Lumon OY, due to its specifics, works at the final stages of construction, when the deadlines for the completion of the object are tight. The production and logistics of the new glazing system takes into account the specifics of the installation, allows for the installation process without downtime Equipment, glazing rises from the outside of the building individually to each balcony, is placed without occupying additional rooms. The new railing system represents a single structure with Lumon frameless glazing.

Lumon - Scandinavian resistance to frost and wind
Lumon balcony facades combine modern aluminum railing with frameless tempered or heat-soak glass to create an elegant balcony façade that will not deteriorate over time. Aluminum alloy is corrosion resistant. The quality has been tested by many years of experience in the harsh offshore winds of the Finnish coasts. The glass is resistant to wind loads, which is confirmed by regular tests in different European countries and in Russia.
So, once again about the advantages of the new LUMON balcony railing system:
- Balcony railing is made of glass, without vertical uprights. The glass may be transparent, it may not be transparent, it may be colored, but there are no vertical frames that break the integrity of the facade.
- Eco-sustainability.
- Frost resistance and ability to withstand strong wind loads.
- The fence is mounted on the slab without a gap, which prevents the penetration of smoke and odors. Significantly increases the sound insulation of the structure.
- The railing is mounted simply, quickly and accurately from the inside of the balcony.
- One design with LUMON frameless glazing: one stylish fittings, one color range of profiles.
