Rise-and-fall glass combines a fixed glass section with a movable glass section that you raise when you want more shelter and lower when you want a clearer view. It’s ideal for balconies, terraces, and patios where wind conditions vary throughout the day or season. You decide when you need shelter.
You get flexible height adjustment depending on the weather, more shade without a permanently high glass section, and an unobstructed view through the glass. Depending on the model, gas springs assist with raising and lowering the screen. Position the screen where the wind most often blows in. Since the glass surface area increases when the screen is raised, the posts, mountings, and base must be designed to withstand the wind load.
