WHY US?

Why Homeowners Choose Glass Railings for Modern Farmhouse Designs

Why Choose Tenmar Over Other Fraser Valley Glass Railing Companies

Modern farmhouse design relies on balance, openness without sterility, structure without heaviness. Glass railings provide transparency while allowing wood, metal, and texture to remain the visual focus. Tenmar designs railing systems that feel intentional within farmhouse architecture, not borrowed from ultra-modern builds.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the top questions our clients ask before getting started.

Is frameless or semi-frameless better for modern farmhouse style?

Both can work, depending on how modern or rustic your home leans. Semi-frameless systems add subtle structure, while frameless designs suit more contemporary farmhouse interpretations.

How long does installation take from quote to completion?

Typically 6-8 weeks on average. Design consultation (1 week) → permit approval (2-3 weeks) → fabrication (2 weeks) → installation (1-2 days).

How is pricing determined?

Pricing depends on deck size, glass configuration, mounting method, and any custom design options. A detailed quote is provided after the consultation. Tenmar railing systems typically range from $300–$400 per linear foot installed.

Do glass railings meet BC Building Code requirements?

Yes. All Tenmar installations are designed and installed to meet current BC Building Code standards.
