THE FASTEST WAY TO FIX AND ALIGN BASE SHOE GLASS RAILINGS
Awarded Q-disc System
A revolutionary advancement in glass installation
Easy Glass Prime and Easy Glass Smart feature the adjustable Q-disc System. This is a one-of-a-kind mechanism to align and fix glass panels at top speed while significantly simplifying installation. This revolutionary advancement received the prestigious Red Dot Design Award.
How it works
The Q-disc System consists of only two components and one tool– an inlay, a Q-disc and the Q-disc tool. The disc fixes the glass panel, while the inlay holds the glass in place for quick and easy alignment within the base shoe. No force required: simply turn the Q-disc tool to fix each panel and align the glass with an easy sliding movement. Indicator points on the Q-disc System guide to you to the correct start and end positions, confirmed with a reassuring ‘click’.

Assembly tips
Even for easy to install railings such as our Easy Glass Smart and Prime there are tricks to get them installed even faster. A few tips and tricks that can simplify things even further.
#1
What if you can’t push a q-disc all the way down into the inlay?
No problem. Not being able to push a Q-disc all the way down into an inlay doesn't mean anything is broken. It can happen simply because of the properties of materials and how they interact under certain conditions. See how easily you can deal with this and still gets the job done quickly.
#2
What if you can’t move an inlay to align the glass?
There are multiple reasons why it may seem impossible to slide an inlay for alignment purposes: uneven floors, varying temperatures, glass panel positioning and so on. But don‘t worry. There is an easy way round the problem.
#3
How do you use the q-disc tool and torque wrench?
Using the Q-disc tool to set and align the glass is easy, and so is finalising glass fixation with the Q-disc tool and a torque wrench. But there are still some handy 'good to knows' that may help you speed things up even further.
#4
How do you get the rubbers inserted as tightly as possible?
Having installed a beautiful glass railing, there is nothing more annoying than difficulties with getting the glass rubbers installed smooth and tight. A super simple trick that really makes this job easy!
