Frameless Windows - Structural Glazing - Window Systems
by IQ Glass
Frameless Structural Glass Windows
Where a large window is required IQ Glass can design a frameless Structural Glass installation to create a completely frameless large window installation. These frameless Windows, dubbed Picture Windows, can create a frameless view to your external environment with absolutely no frame or fixings on show.
The clean and minimal window design you can achieve is perfect for modern architectural designs and bring in a large amount of natural light as well as maximising views.
With no framings needed the size of these frameless windows can be designed to suit all types and scales of window openings with all manner of shapes easily constructed and installed. We use our thermally broken Invisio fixing section for frameless windows.
Frameless structural glass windows connecting around a corner are also possible to design using this same design method for frameless corner windows or to create a contemporary twist on the traditional bay window. See Oriel Windows for more information about creating 3D frameless windows.

Yes! IQ use structural glazing to create frameless windows, meaning there is no outer frame and any connections or fixings are concealed within the building finishes. This is why we should be involved in the early stages of a project.
As structural glazing is used for this type of glazing, the only limit is your imagination! In the UK the largest glass panes reach around 6m x 3m but sizes can be larger when importing glass from overseas. Factors such as wind load will need to be taken into account to ensure high performance values.
The IQ architectural glazing showroom has various installations of structural glazing on show at our showroom, including multiple high-level frameless windows, showcasing a frameless internal finish. These tall slot windows are built into a brick structure and showcase a suitable detail externally for these types of building structures.
We also have an oversized frameless window with bespoke burnt timer cladding concealing the thermally broken aluminium fixings. This is an excellent showcase of how large panes of structural glazing can be used to create minimalistic glazing installations that offer clear panoramic views.
