Cool, thank you. I'm probably going to get the rails and glass from different places. There is a glass merchant not far from me

Interesting, good to hear someone else has done the same thing. Yeah the glass will be heavy but I like the idea of a single pane with a small gap between it and the half newel. I feel like that would be a nice finish, what do you think? Where id you get the iron on veneers too please?

Yeah it's similar but the return to the newel is much shorter at 60mm so I was planning to leave that open. I like the style of those newel caps though, where are they from?

Thank you for the advice in both replies above. From what I've read, over a 1200mm span it should be 10mm toughened glass, would you recommend 8mm liminated or something different? Do you have any opinions on how to properly secure the run to the newel and join the return?

Hi all, I'm planning to replace the wooden spindle balustrade on my first floor landing with glass and oak, and I'd like a sanity check on the building regs position before I order anything. I have attached a very crude/basic top down view of what is currently in place. It'll stay the same...
