Glacier Panel Railing Systems

View Full Gallery >

The Glacier panel railing system by AGS Stainless provides a clean, contemporary look that accommodates a variety of panel infill materials. These include glass, mesh and plastic for both interior and exterior applications. Whether you want a railing system that allows for unobstructed views, protection from the elements, fall-prevention safety capabilities, a separation barrier, or any combination of these, quality custom fabrication delivers the flexibility you need.

Glacier features one-piece posts that are unique to AGS Stainless and can be paired with a wide array of top rail options to deliver a fully-customized, high-end look.

Like all stainless steel railing systems under the Clearview® brand, the components are fabricated in-house to help ensure consistent, high-quality execution. Each Glacier panel railing system is designed and custom-built to fit your project specifications.

Once fabrication is complete, each Glacier panel railing system is quality checked and then shipped directly from the AGS factory in the Pacific Northwest to ensure prompt delivery and easy on-site installation.

Experience the difference that personalized service and commitment to quality can make for your project. Check out our Best of Houzz 2022 Award for Service to see how we make it happen.

No estimation or guesswork required on your part. After you submit a simple drawing with basic measurements and any relevant photos, a dedicated design consultant will work with you or your contractor to discuss options, expectations, applications, budget, time frame, constraints, compliance, and maintenance. Design decisions determined at this point include measurements, top rail, infill, finish, mount, and any stair specifics. Then your design consultant develops a detailed cost estimate for your consideration at no cost to you.

Design Process Our Designers work closely with clients (Homeowners, Architects, Builders, Project Managers, or Installers), to ensure precise and accurate development of CAD drawings. Using client-provided images and detailed measurements, the designer creates 2D CAD drawings of the project site from which they will custom design and configure the railing system… Identify and address any potential challenges that may affect the design or installation of your system Access to in-house engineering Ensure compliance against relevant standards and building codes Verify all measurements are EXACT Review and submit final design drawings for client's approval Upon signed final approval, the designer will generate an installation guide and send approved drawings to fabrication Once you have approved the cost estimate for your railing system, a specially trained designer establishes a working relationship with you or your contractor to go over every detail. After that, your designer creates exact computer-aided design (CAD) drawings to ensure that you will receive your desired look with a perfect on-site fit.

Fabrication Process AGS Stainless pre-fabricates all CLEARVIEW railing systems in-house using advanced manufacturing techniques. Railing systems are precision cut to 0.004/in using a LASERTUBE LT/FIBER laser, providing our customers with improved efficiency and a higher quality product. Our Laser Technician will convert 2D CAD drawings, created by the Design Department, into 3D Renderings. Make any adjustments and upload the files to the Laser. Railing Posts and components are precision cut from stainless stock and engraved with a number, identifying that individual part for ease of installation. Fabrication is completed by our artisan welders, joining additional parts to produce seamless, complete railing components. Parts are finished, cleaned and polished by hand before being carefully packaged into a series of manageable boxes, clearly labeled and ready to ship. AGS Stainless creates prefabricated, pre-built railing systems, custom designed and built for your project site, using high quality material and unsurpassed attention to detail. Every system includes labeled installation instructions, each part is labeled, carefully packed and ready to ship for a timely delivery and DIY installation. After you've approved your final CAD drawing, the fabrication process can begin. Meticulous planning allows the components to be fabricated off-site, which improves quality and simplifies the installation process. The fabrication team at the AGS factory brings expertise built on years of experience to perform fiber laser cutting, tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, and finishing for the components before they are carefully packaged and shipped directly to you.
