Another important milestone was reached today with the installation of the mezzanine glass and metal railing. It took us months to decide on a design for this railing and even longer to finalize its assembly and installation. We worked very closely with the contractor to source the appropriate materials and ensure the railing would meet all safety regulations. \u00a0We wanted something that would not block the view from the large bay windows which explains the use of glass and no vertical posts. The challenge was to find appropriate railing in the same black metal as the staircases (no stainless steel or aluminium) to hold the glass panels in place. We love the result and can’t wait until the wooden hand-rail is fully installed – in our opinion, it adds that warm touch so often missing in glass and metal works.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholderUne autre \u00e9tape importante vient de se termin\u00e9e aujourd’hui avec la pose de la rambarde en verre, m\u00e9tal et bois du balcon de la mezzanine. Comme pour les escaliers, la rambarde fait partie de ces ouvrages qui nous ont un peu pris la t\u00eate \ud83d\ude09 Nous avons pass\u00e9 pas mal de temps \u00e0 choisir le style et une fois cela fait, il a fallu plancher sur sa r\u00e9alisation laquelle n’\u00e9tait pas jou\u00e9e d’avance : armature qui s’accorde avec celle des escaliers donc fer brut ou peint en noir (pas d’inox ou alu) et qui soit des plus minimaliste donc pas de balustres ou poteaux. Nous avons travaill\u00e9 \u00e9troitement avec l’artisan choisi pour la r\u00e9alisation de cet ouvrage (m\u00eame artisan que pour les escaliers) pour trouver les bons mat\u00e9riaux et un assemblage qui tienne la route. Nous sommes tr\u00e8s contents du r\u00e9sultat et avons h\u00e2te que la main courante en bois, qui selon nous apporte le brin de chaleur souvent manquant dans tout ouvrage en fer et verre, soit fini d’\u00eatre pos\u00e9e.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
