Description
The post that turns a frameless glass balustrade through 90 degrees in 48.3mm. This is a ready-made 48.3mm x 2.0mm satin 304 stainless corner post, 1100mm tall with a radiused cap, a 120mm base plate already welded on, and the clamp holes already drilled on two faces at right angles. It comes with four D-shaped glass clamps, two for each panel, rubbers and screws, and a cover plate. A corner post holds two glass panels meeting at 90 degrees, and the glass forms the top edge of the balustrade. The price shown is for one post. Glass and floor fixings are not included.
What is in the box
| Post | 48.3mm x 2.0mm 304 stainless, satin, 1100mm overall, clamp holes drilled on two faces at 90 degrees |
|---|---|
| Post cap | Radiused, included |
| Base plate | 120mm, welded on, with three slotted fixing holes |
| Glass clamps | 4, D-shaped, two on each face, with rubbers for 8, 10 or 12mm glass and fixing screws |
| Cover plate | 1, to hide the base plate and bolts |
| Not included | Glass panels, floor fixings |
Why choose this post
No welding, no drilling. The base plate is welded on and the clamp holes are drilled at 780mm centres, 160mm in from each end, matching the 48.3mm mid and end posts so the glass sits at the same height all the way round.
A clean right-angle turn. The two pairs of clamps sit on faces at 90 degrees, so the panels meet neatly at the post without a gap to fill.
A heavier post. At 48.3mm it is the larger of the two common stainless post sizes. Keep the whole run in 48.3mm so posts, caps and clamps match.
304 grade, for indoor and sheltered balustrades. 304 stainless suits homes, offices, hotels, shops and other dry or sheltered places. Near the sea, round pools or where road salt is spread, a 316 balustrade is the better choice.
No load rating is published for a capped run without a handrail. Glass with no handrail on top has to carry the load itself, so the glass type and thickness, post spacing, fixings and floor need checking by whoever signs off the design.
Where it is used
Use it where a glass balustrade turns a corner on landings, around stairwells, at mezzanine and gallery edges and on raised floors in homes, offices, hotels and shops, and on sheltered terraces and balconies away from salt.

Fitting and care
Set out the run and stand each post in place, marking through the slots in the base plate. Turn the corner post so its two pairs of clamp holes face along each leg of the run. The cover plate goes over the post from the top, so fit it before the cap goes on, then bolt the post to the floor with anchors suited to the floor and lower the cover plate over the base plate. Fit the clamps with the rubbers for your glass thickness, set the panels in and tighten the clamp screws evenly.
Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, wiping along the grain, and avoid chlorine bleach and wire wool.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one post?
Yes, one corner post with its cap, four clamps and cover plate. You need one at each 90 degree turn.
Is the glass included?
No. Glass and floor fixings are not included. The clamps take 8, 10 or 12mm glass.
Does it work for corners other than 90 degrees?
No, the clamp holes are drilled at 90 degrees. For other angles, call us and we will check what is available.
Can I use it outdoors?
Under cover and away from salt, yes. Near the sea, round pools or where road salt is spread, choose 316.
