Glazed balconies in Poole

Glazed balconies transform four apartment blocks in coastal Poole.

Balco has completed a large-scale refurbishment project in the scenic coastal town of Poole, on the south coast of England. Working in collaboration with United Living, the project involved the complete removal of existing balconies from four 10-storey residential blocks and the installation of 249 energy-efficient glazed balconies.

This extensive renovation has not only refreshed the buildings’ appearance but also significantly improved comfort and functionality for residents. The new balcony systems provide shelter from wind and rain, extend the living space year-round, and contribute to reduced heating costs – all particularly beneficial in a coastal location like Poole.

TwinAir winter garden panels

Each balcony was constructed using Balco’s ConFe slabs and fitted with TwinAir winter garden panels, featuring sliding windows and external handrails. Structural support was provided through continuous steel columns with tension rods, all coated with intumescent fire protection paint for enhanced safety.

The project has brought a modern, cohesive look to the buildings and added long-term value for residents and property owners alike.
