WHY US?

Why Choose Tenmar Over Other Vancouver Glass Railing Companies

Why Choose Tenmar Over Other Fraser Valley Glass Railing Companies

If you're a Vancouver condo owner planning to replace rusted metal or deteriorating wood balcony railings, you need a glass railing system that gets strata council approval on the first submission, and passes city inspection without delays. Most contractors don't understand strata bylaws, engineer certification requirements, or Vancouver's specific wind load codes for high-rise buildings.

Strata-Approved Glass Railings Engineered for Vancouver Buildings

Strata-Approved Glass Railings Engineered for Vancouver Buildings

  • We navigate strata approval for you – Most strata councils require engineer letters, wind load calculations, and architectural drawings before approving any exterior change. We prepare every document and attend strata meetings if needed.

  • Engineer-certified for Vancouver's coastal wind loads – Every system includes structural engineer stamps for wind resistance up to 140 km/h—mandatory for buildings over 3 stories.

  • Minimal disruption to residents – Installation takes 4-6 hours per balcony. No scaffolding needed in most cases. We schedule around strata restrictions.

  • Glass rated for seismic activity – Built for BC's earthquake zone with flexible anchoring systems that prevent glass cracking during ground movement.
