Glass curtains
Glass panels with no vertical frames that stack to one side.
In short
How do you enclose a penthouse terrace?
Quick answer. A penthouse terrace is open to the sky and catches a lot of wind, so the first choice is what goes overhead. Glass curtains can close just the perimeter and leave it roofless, or you can add a retractable roof, fixed roof or bioclimatic pergola. Wind at height sets the glass and fittings. The visit also checks waterproofing and access.
What to choose
What does your penthouse terrace need?
On a penthouse, wind comes first and sun comes second.
| What you want | Sides | Roof |
|---|---|---|
| Stop the wind and keep the view | Glass curtains | No roof |
| Summer shade and open sky when you like | Glass curtains | Bioclimatic pergola |
| Shelter from rain, open on good days | Curtains or sliding glass | Retractable roof |
| An extra room all year round | Insulated curtains | Fixed roof |
Before you enclose
What should you check on a penthouse before enclosing it?
A penthouse has conditions a ground floor terrace does not. The site visit is the moment to check them.
- Wind at height: it decides the glass thickness and the fittings.
- Roof waterproofing: the fixings must not damage it.
- The facade and the owners’ community: if the enclosure is visible from the street, many buildings require their approval.
- Access for installation: stairs, lift and the size of panels that can be taken up.

FAQ
Questions about penthouse enclosures
Can a penthouse terrace be enclosed without a roof?
Yes. Glass curtains go around the perimeter only and the terrace stays open to the sky. They stop the wind and keep the view, but they do not keep off rain from above.
Can a penthouse be enclosed without building work?
In most cases, yes. Glass curtains and pergolas are fixed to the floor, the parapet or the existing structure without building walls.
Will the glass stand up to the wind at that height?
The glass and fittings are chosen for the height and exposure of the building. That is why the wind is checked on the site visit, before the quote.
What does a penthouse enclosure cost?
It depends on the measurements, the system and whether it has a roof. We do not publish prices: the quote is prepared after visiting and measuring.
Does the owners’ community have to approve it?
It depends on the community rules and the town hall, especially if the enclosure can be seen from the street. What LUNEKS handles for you
Can I still open the terrace in summer?
Yes. Glass curtains stack to one side, and a retractable roof or bioclimatic pergola opens when the weather is good.
