Glass Balustrades and Curved Doors in East Kent

Tantalising sea views are delivered through 171 metres of Balconette’s clear glass balustrading at these luxury modern apartments – with a famous connection – located on the prestigious North Foreland estate, one of the most desirable areas in East Kent.

Residents of the two contemporary apartment blocks at Ocean Drive, Broadstairs have private access to a secluded beach below via the famous ‘The Thirty-Nine Steps’ from John Buchan’s renowned novel of the same name, first published in 1915.

Curved doors and Orbit Glass Balustrades in East Kent

While the original wooden steps were replaced in the 1940s with concrete ones, the upper entrance is still surrounded by bushes that hide it from view as depicted in the novel. Adapted for film three times, in 1935 Alfred Hitchcock directed the first – and arguably most memorable – of the ‘man-on-the-run’ thriller.

Orbit Glass Balustrades in Kent

Spacious balconies enhance each of the east facing apartments, making the most of outdoor space, Kent’s warm sunny summers and, of course, those fabulous unspoilt views to the water. Each balcony features Balconette’s Hybrid® Orbit Glass Balustrade System with its anodised aluminium circular handrail and base track – in Balconette’s proprietary Royal Chrome finish – together with 10mm Clear Toughened Glass.

Curved Sliding Doors in Kent

Due to their size and run of glass, some balconies required posts. However, these were minimal as the Orbit System allows up to 3.3m balustrade runs without the need for posts. Where required, these posts were supplied in the Royal Chrome finish to match the handrails.
