The Benefits of a Balcony

Balconies offer more than just a place to step outside; they enhance your lifestyle and add value to your property. Whether it’s enjoying a coffee in the morning sun or simply opening up your space to fresh air and natural light, a balcony provides a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

 

As well as comfort and style, balcony balustrades also play an essential role in safety, acting as a secure barrier for raised outdoor areas such as patios, terraces and upper-storey doors. With SMART Balustrades, you can be confident your balcony is both beautiful and built to last.

What is a balcony?

A balcony is typically a raised platform outdoors, attached to the side of any building which is enclosed by a low railing, wall or balustrade. Balconies are usually accessible through an upper floor and generally only have one point of access such as a bedroom.

Do I need planning permission to install a balcony?

Most likely, yes. You may need to obtain planning permission before installing a balcony to your property. Planning guidance can usually be found on the UK Government’s website and through your local council. However, there are the number of factors to consider when designing a balcony and submitting a planning application, including: Whether your balcony will overlook neighbouring properties and gardens Consideration as to how the balcony’s solid floor will affect the amount of light that can reach through to windows on lower floors Whether the design of the balcony will match with your property’s overall design Whether there is a precedence for installing balconies on properties in the same area What type of guarding rail or balustrade you will have in place to prevent falls If your property is a listed building, you will need to seek additional permission to install a balcony

Can I use my roof as a balcony?

In short, yes, you may be able to. Planning permission will be required, like above, if you’re wanting to convert or modify your flat or property roof. Again, you may need to seek permission from your council and they will evaluate how the balcony might affect your neighbours and how it would impact surrounding areas. This may also be classed more as a terrace.

What is the difference between a balcony and a terrace?

Terraces are more open spaces, and they can be detached or attached to a property. Whereas balconies are small elevated platforms that are usually fixed to a property and lead to one room, as well as being more private and less open.
