What is a Juliet balcony?
One of the most common questions we’re asked is: what is the point of a Juliet balcony? Juliet balconies are positioned across a full-height upper-storey opening and are designed to give the appearance of a full balcony, though they can’t be walked on. Instead, they can be installed alongside French doors, bi-fold doors or full-length windows to allow natural light and air into a room. At DLS Fabrication, we offer a diverse array of bespoke Juliet balconies, ranging from sleek glass designs to robust steel or wrought iron options, tailored to suit your taste and architectural vision.
