BA Systems were commissioned by Willmott Dixon to provide their B40 Frameless Glass balustrade to the external terrace and balcony areas at the Greenwich Millennium Village.

The Greenwich Millennium Village is a joint venture development by Countryside and Taylor Wimpey. This phase of the Greenwich Peninsula development has delivered 206 private, shared ownership and affordable rent homes in residential blocks, and includes a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments.

At design stage, the solution that was agreed to give the architectural finish to the balustrade was backpainted or sandblasted glass. This gave a consistent coloured finish as well as providing the privacy required for some of the balconies. Secondary steel angles were also designed and developed for areas where the B40 balustrade channel could not be fixed directly to the slab.

At the delivery stage, the BA Systems’ site surveyor and site management team worked closely with the Willmott Dixon site team to ensure that our product was ready for a consistent installation flow without delaying the surrounding trades.

With a site manager and design manager assigned to the project, BA Systems were able to monitor the installation flow and product quality to ensure exceptional delivery and a stunning finished product.
