UNIKIM Stainless Steel Standoff Clamps offer a seamless, high-end solution for securing glass panels without the need for bulky frames. Crafted from premium AISI 304, 316, or 2205 Duplex stainless steel, these hardware components provide exceptional structural integrity while maintaining a sleek, unobtrusive profile. Designed to hold glass thicknesses ranging from 8mm to 15mm, our standoff glass clamps create an elegant gap between the glass and the mounting surface, resulting in a stunning “floating” aesthetic. Whether you are installing a residential balcony or a commercial staircase, UNIKIM ensures a mirror-like or satin finish that resists corrosion and stands the test of time.

Why Choose UNIKIM Standoff Glass Clamps?

Choosing the right hardware is a balance of safety and style. Here is why architects and installers trust UNIKIM for their needs:

FAQs

1. What is the main difference between a standard glass clamp and a standoff glass clamp?

A standard glass clamp typically secures glass to a post or a flat surface by “clamping” the edge, often keeping the glass flush with the support. In contrast, Standoff Glass Clamps are cylindrical anchors that require a hole to be drilled through the glass. This allows the panel to sit away from the surface, creating a sophisticated floating effect and superior structural stability for heavier panels.

2. Is it safe to use standoff glass clamps for high-traffic commercial balconies?

Absolutely. When manufactured from high-grade materials like SS316 or SS2205, standoff systems meet the stringent “concentrated load” requirements mandated by international building codes. UNIKIM’s hardware is designed to distribute pressure evenly across the glass panel. When paired with tempered or laminated safety glass, these systems provide a secure, impact-resistant barrier that is both functional and visually striking for busy public spaces.

3. What glass thickness is required for a secure standoff installation?

The required glass thickness depends on the specific application and local building codes, but most standoff systems are optimized for 10mm to 15mm (3/8″ to 1/2″) tempered or laminated glass. Thicker glass provides more rigidity over long spans. UNIKIM’s standoff glass clamps come with specialized gaskets that accommodate various thicknesses, ensuring a snug, vibration-dampening fit that prevents the glass from slipping or rattling over time.
