Mini Posts & Spigot Glass Railing
Mini Post & Spigot Glass Railings in Toronto
Spigot glass railings — also called mini post railings — use compact stainless steel clamps mounted to the floor or deck surface to grip and support the glass panels from the bottom edge. Unlike base shoe systems that use a continuous channel, spigots are individual point supports that create a distinctive look with visible gaps between the glass and the mounting surface. This gives the railing a floating, architecturaly bold apperance thats increasingly popular in modern residential and commercial design.
Mirakasa installs spigot glass railings across the Greater Toronto Area, from downtown Toronto condos to suburban homes in Vaughan, Brampton, and beyond.
Mirakasa is Toronto’s specialist for spigot and mini post glass railing installations. These systems offer a unique aesthetic thats different from base shoe or standoff railings — the small stainless steel clamps create a minimal, industrial modern look thats perfect for contemporary architecture. We service clients across Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Ottawa, and the entire GTA. Our fabrication and installation team handles every project from start to finish.
Each spigot mount consists of a base plate anchored to the structural surface and a clamping mechanism that grips the glass panel from both sides. The clamps are typically positioned 600mm to 900mm apart along the railing run, and each one provides independent support and adjustment. This makes spigots particularly practical for installations on uneven surfaces or complex geometries where a continuous base shoe would be difficult to install level.

Spigot Railing Features & Specifications
Our spigot railing systems use heavy duty 316 stainless steel clamps designed for structural glass railing applications. Each spigot is precision machined to provide a secure, adjustable grip on the glass panel while maintaining a clean minimal profile. The base plates are available in surface mount and core drill configurations to suit different installation conditions.
- 316 marine grade stainless steel spigot clamps
- Accommodates 12mm, 15mm, and 19mm tempered glass
- Surface mount and core drill base plate options
- Individually adjustable for height and level
- Suitable for interior and exterior applications
Why Choose Spigot Glass Railings
Spigots offer distinct advantages in certain installation scenarios. Because each spigot is independently adjustable, they are ideal for surfaces that are not perfectly level or flat — like natural stone pool decks, uneven concrete, or outdoor decking with slight variations. Each clamp can be shimmed and adjusted individually, making it much easier to achieve a level glass top edge on imperfect surfaces.
Common applications:
• Pool fencing and enclosures
• Balcony and terrace railings
• Stair railings with complex angles
• Deck railings on uneven surfaces
• Commercial lobby and mezzanine guards
Spigot railing installation begins with marking out the clamp positions along the railing run. Our team ensures even spacing and proper alignment before drilling anchor holes into the structural surface. For core drill installations, precision is critical — each hole must be exactly positioned to align with the pre drilled holes in the glass panels.
Once the base plates are secured, glass panels are lifted into position and clamped between the spigot jaws. Each clamp is then adjusted for level and tightened to the correct torque specification. A typical spigot railing installation takes 2 to 5 days depending on the length and complexity of the run.
Spigot railings require slightly more maintainance attention then base shoe systems because of the exposed hardware. We recommend checking clamp tightness every 6 months for the first year, then annualy thereafter. For outdoor installations, the stainless steel clamps should be cleaned periodically to prevent surface staining from environmental contaminants.
All spigot railing installations from Mirakasa include our 1 year warranty covering glass panels, stainless steel spigot hardware, and installation workmanship.
