What are the different types of glass railings?

When it comes to glass railing systems, you're really looking at three main options: frameless, semi-frameless, and framed systems. Each one has its own way of holding the glass in place — whether that's through spigots, base shoes, standoffs, or posts — and they each give off a pretty different vibe.

Which one makes sense for you really comes down to a few things: how much you're willing to spend, the look you're going for, where exactly you're putting it in, and — don't overlook this one — what your local building codes actually allow.
