The International Building Code (IBC) is a comprehensive set of standards developed by the International Code Council (ICC) to ensure public health, safety, and welfare in building construction. The IBC is widely adopted across the United States, with states and localities often modifying it to address specific regional needs.
The IBC establishes minimum standards for all aspects of building construction, including specific guidelines for the design, installation, and maintenance of glass railings. These standards ensure that glass railings are safe, durable, and compliant with modern building practices.
Each state in the USA may adopt the IBC with modifications or develop its own building codes that include specific provisions for glass railings. Below are links to the building codes for several states:
In addition to national and state codes, local municipalities often have specific building codes and regulations that apply to glass railings. It is essential to consult with local building departments to ensure compliance with any additional requirements that may apply to your project.
Staying informed about the building codes specific to glass railings in your region is crucial for ensuring compliance and safety. This guide serves as a valuable resource for understanding the diverse building regulations across the United States.

The glass arrived in perfect condition. The hardest part was moving the glass from my driveway to my back deck. I used masking tape to create a line and then did all my markings on the tape. Excellent product, straight forward installation. Thank you
We are so pleased with the service of this company! We live 3 provinces away and the ordering and delivery both went smoothly. Everything came in a crate delivered right to our door with free shipping! All intact. Thank you so much. The quality appears great but I guess we will see when the rails are up and in place.🙂
I shopped for quite a long time and search from website to website but they were the only one to have the measurements I needed
I was hesitating between the glass railing store and invisirail but ultimately landed here because of better quality. Beautiful product, will buy again for other projects
I'm so happy I found you guys because I was getting quotes for like $180 per linear foot which is crazy! I was able to install it with my son for half of that because of glass railing store. Thank you so much for all the help in crafting the project, I will be recommending you guys from now on
Beautiful job! Incredibly happy with your prompt delivery and beautifully finished glass, will definitely be using your services again. 5-Stars!
Very satisfied with my order, glass is thick and strong. I love how the corners are a little rounded, I didn't even know that was going to be the case
good quality to price ratio, I recommend
Thank you so much to the team for delivering my glass railing! I am super grateful that I found you guys it just looks great! My husband installed it last night so I have a beautiful sunset picture for you guys to enjoy!
All my neighbours are going to order too, can I have a discount for referring
good
Just beautiful, will be ordering again for my son's house
I was a little skeptical at the beginning as I was worried that they may be cheap, but Marine in customer service assured me that they were good. They arrived last week and WOW they weight like 5 pounds each (of stainless steel!!) and come with adjustable screws (didn't even know)
The quality is amazing and I highly recommend them for hardware, this is really heavy duty stuff. I also like that they have a 10 year warranty on the rust, that we will have to wait 10 years to comment on but pretty good. Once again, thank you marine for assisting me
same review as the other connectors
I personally went with the big connectors as I have stronger winds coming from the lake, but I can see how someone may choose the smaller ones for less hardware.
I think the big ones offer more support
I had some doubts at the beginning as I have no clue how they ship glass, but everything arrives in a crate in great shape!
I mean look at that, definitely one of the most affordable options online too, especially compared with invisarail or like the home depot alternative.
Got the coupons too for an extra discount
Installation was a breeze. These hinges work perfectly.
Just don't forget to follow the instruction thing for the closing speed!
