What is a Juliet Balcony?

A Juliet balcony, also known as a Juliette balcony, is aptly named after the Shakespearean heroine. As a nod to the Bard’s scene of two star-crossed lovers meeting at moonlight, it is a glazed balcony that provides unobstructed views of the gardens below.

This modern take on a balcony combines a sleek, compact structure and modern high-performance materials for both function and form. At Internorm, we provide our customers with premium-grade systems that excel in performance. We are the leading manufacturers and suppliers of triple glazed products, including balcony glazing for commercial projects.

What Are The Benefits of Juliet Balconies?

Juliet balconies are an excellent alternative for those who cannot have a fully external balcony. However, they offer a multitude of benefits that may make you want one even more than a conventional balcony!

Additional Natural Daylight

For example, one of the benefits is that you can enjoy increased natural daylight in your room. You can replace your windows with full-height sliding doors, including a Juliette balcony factory fitted to your Internorm profiles, making the balcony itself part of the door.

Better Air Circulation

This also means that you can enjoy better air circulation. By replacing smaller windows with large-scale doors, they allow for larger openings to promote more airflow in and around your property. This is perfect for small flats, hotel rooms, or offices with poor ventilation.

Unobstructed Views of The Outside

Another benefit is the unobstructed views of the outside. Particularly in high-rise buildings, you can get fantastic full-length glazing that provides exceptional views of your surroundings. This can also improve the market value of your property!

Enhanced Security

Juliet balconies provide an additional layer of protection for your property. At Internorm, our Juliet balconies are crafted with laminated security glass, which further improves the safety of your home. You can also opt for a balustrade and choose from a range of contemporary stainless-steel railings to create a safe and secure fixture that blends in with your property’s aesthetics.

Improved Thermal Performance

Additionally, Juliet balconies can also improve thermal efficiency. The additional glazed panel further helps your window or doors retain heat, reducing the amount you rely on central heating to keep your property warm.
