CHALLENGE:After 140 years in operation, Cliff House Resort in York, Maine, closed to undergo a complete renovation. Designed by architectural firms Cooper Carry and TruexCullins, the resort reopened in July 2016. The result is a world-class retreat that offers rich historical character while reflecting a contemporary seaside lifestyle. INFLUENCE:To enhance the aesthetics, safety and function of the resort, glass railing systems were provided. SOLUTION:To preserve the inspiring oceanfront views while increasing safety for visitors, multiple areas of Cliff House Resort are lined with CRL’s GRS TAPER-LOC Glass Railing System. A key feature of the GRS TAPER-LOC Glass Railing System is in its name. The patented TAPER-LOC dry glaze installation method reduces installation time by more than 50%. It also allows for easy adjustment or replacement of glass lites. Exterior areas of Cliff House Resort are equipped with CRL’s P-Series Post Railing System. Posts are constructed from durable stainless steel, making the system ideal for the resort’s handrail and guardrail applications. null
