Glass Windbreaks on the Costa del Sol
Glass windbreaks stop the wind with tempered or laminated glass screens and aluminium profiles, without raising an opaque barrier or blocking the view. We manufacture and install them directly across the Costa del Sol.
Costa del Sol
Glass Windbreak, made to measure
Telescopic models adjust the height to suit the day, and the assembly can be free-standing or anchored depending on regulations and use.
Finishes include RAL profile colours, clear or satin glass, vinyls and planter integration - a frequent choice for terraces, pools and restaurants.
We size the glass and profiles for the real exposure of each terrace after a free survey.

Specification
How glass windbreak are built
Tempered glass panels
Thickness is specified from panel height and the wind exposure of the position. Edges are polished on all sides, since a windbreak is handled and cleaned far more often than a fixed enclosure.
Fixing systems
Stainless clamps onto an existing railing, a bottom channel profile, or free-standing bases where nothing can be drilled - the usual choice for terraces in listed or rented premises.
Modular runs
Panels are combined into runs of any length, with returns at corners. Sold by linear metre because that is how the cost actually scales.
Finishes
RAL-matched profiles, satin or acid-etched glass for privacy, and applied vinyl for branding on hospitality terraces.
In detail
When a windbreak is enough
If the terrace is pleasant apart from the wind, enclosing it fully is overspending. A glass windbreak is a tempered-glass panel 1.40–1.80 m high, fixed to the floor, that stops the wind at table height without blocking the view or closing the perimeter. It is priced per linear metre.
Windbreaks for bars and restaurants
On a hospitality terrace a windbreak marks the space, shelters guests and keeps the view of the promenade. If the terrace is on public land, the town hall's terrace ordinance sets heights and conditions, so check it before ordering.
Windbreak or glass curtains
A windbreak stops side wind but not rain or cold; glass curtains close the terrace completely and stack away in summer. Many terraces combine windbreaks on the sides with curtains at the front.
Glass, height and fixing
The height is chosen to protect people sitting down, or standing too. The glass is tempered or laminated safety glass, thicker on front-line and high terraces where the wind is stronger. Panels are fixed to the floor with a continuous profile or with posts, depending on the surface and whether the terrace is private or a hospitality space.
What moves the cost of a windbreak
A glass windbreak is priced per linear metre. Height, glass thickness and the fixing system are what move the figure most, and the survey gives you the exact price in an itemised, no-obligation quote.
Combining windbreaks with other systems
Windbreaks often work alongside other systems: side windbreaks with glass curtains across the front, or windbreaks around a terrace covered by a bioclimatic pergola. We design the combination in a single survey so heights and fixings line up.
