The set of components for French balconies

The Strofix component set for French balconies is an AISI 304 stainless-steel railing attachment kit designed for Ø42.4 mm tube French balcony systems. The full set contains 2 right-side fasteners (upper and lower), 2 left-side fasteners (upper and lower), and 1 bracket — 5 pieces in total. Available in satin finish, with individual components also sold separately.

The right-side and left-side fasteners are handed pairs (upper and lower) that connect the Ø42.4 mm horizontal railing tube to the building structure on each side of the balcony opening. The bracket provides the central or intermediate support point. All components are manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel, suitable for standard interior and exterior installations. The customer can order the full set, or select individual right-side, left-side, or bracket components as needed for replacement or non-standard configurations.

The satin finish provides a uniform, low-maintenance appearance consistent with other Strofix French balcony fittings.

FAQ:

What is included in the full set?

The full set contains 5 pieces: 2 right-side fasteners (upper and lower), 2 left-side fasteners (upper and lower), and 1 bracket. This covers a complete French balcony railing attachment for one opening.

What tube diameter are these components designed for?

The right-side and left-side fasteners are designed for Ø42.4 mm railing tubes. The bracket is also compatible with the Ø42.4 mm tube diameter. This is the standard railing tube size used in Strofix French balcony systems.

Can I order individual components instead of the full set?

Yes. The dropdown on this product page allows ordering individual right-side fasteners, left-side fasteners, or a bracket separately. This is useful for replacing a single damaged component or for non-standard French balcony configurations that require extra parts on one side.

What steel grade and finish is used?

All components are manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish. AISI 304 is suitable for standard interior and exterior installations.

Are left-side and right-side fasteners interchangeable?

No. The left-side and right-side fasteners are handed — they mirror each other to match the respective side of the balcony opening. Each side consists of an upper and lower fastener. Order the correct side to match your installation.

Do these components work with Strofix glass holders?

These railing attachment components are part of the Strofix French balcony system and are designed to work alongside Strofix glass holders with anchor rods, which secure the glass panel to the building structure. The glass holders and the railing components serve different functions — the glass holders fix the glass, while this set connects the Ø42.4 mm railing tube to the wall.

About French Balconies

A French balcony is a glass barrier fixed directly to the building façade at a full-height window or door opening, providing fall protection without a projecting balcony slab. The glass panel is held in place by stainless-steel glass holders with integrated rods that anchor into the wall, creating a flush, minimal-hardware guardrail that preserves the open view and natural light.

Strofix supplies French balcony components in two rod sizes — Ø16 × 320 mm and Ø20 × 320 mm — in AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless steel, with glass holders covering spacer heights from 4 to 30 mm and glass thicknesses from 6 to 12 mm.Individual glass holders and a complete component set (with left, right and bracket pieces) are available.

The correct configuration depends on glass thickness, required spacer height, rod diameter and whether the project needs individual parts or a full set.
