A Juliet balcony can be described in a number of ways as, interestingly, there is no official architectural definition for this type of structure. Most commonly identified as a small balcony that can often be found in countries such as Spain and Italy, Juliet balconies are narrow balconies, or in some cases they are just railings which are placed on the exterior of windows or French doors.

Although all Juliet balconies offer their own benefits, by far amongst the most popular type of installation is the glass Juliet balcony which offers a modern design and a wealth of advantages, including:

• Creating outside space, without the need for a pricey extension –dark and dingy rooms can sometimes be tricky to improve. With a glass Juliet balcony, you can bring the outside world in, making the room brighter, airier and creating the illusion of additional space.
• No planning permission necessary – most big home renovations require some hurdles such as planning permission. The great part of opting for a glass Juliet balcony is that you don’t need planning permission to install it, making it even easier (and quicker!) to do.
• Increased safety – you wouldn’t have a large window or door opening up onto nothing, and the price of adding balconies and balustrades can often exceed budget. With a Juliet balcony, you are able to add an additional level of security to your home whilst still benefiting from the improved lighting.
• Improved air-flow – whether you’re struggling through a stuffy summer or simply want to get some fresh air circulating around your home, adding a glass Juliet balcony or Juliet balcony railings can allow you to let air in without posing a safety risk.

Done correctly, most types of balcony can add value to your property. Specifically, a Juliet balcony positioned on the right side of your building (to get the most light) can create the feeling of more space, whilst offering additional safety and aesthetic appeal.

You can opt for any type of Juliet balcony design, whether that be black metal, painted white French design or something more contemporary to ensure that the Juliet balcony you install adds to the character of your home, making it a future-proof investment.

Otherwise known as a balconette, Juliet balconies are ‘false balconies’ that can offer an aesthetic appeal and additional security to your home without requiring the expense attached to building an actual balcony.

Juliet balconies can be made from metal railings or glass, and do not feature an actual extension like regular balconies, meaning they cannot be stood on or used as additional space. Instead, Juliet balconies serve as an affordable and simple way of transforming a room or area into a brighter place to enjoy and revamping the external appearance of your home at the same time.

The short answer is anyone! Whether you own an apartment or a home, Juliet balconies can add visual appeal and value – and the best bit is that they’re totally affordable and easy to install!

In particular, families who have young children and pets have found that the addition of a glass Juliet balcony has helped to improve safety standards in the home, as regular Juliet balcony railings could still pose a risk as smaller objects can fall through the gaps.

So, whether you’re looking for a frameless glass Juliet balcony for a sleek and contemporary aesthetic, or a traditional Juliet balcony with railings, here at Square 1 we can help make your visions a reality.
