Questions and Answers

Retrofitting is almost always possible without any problems. The only important requirement is that the adjacent masonry is solid enough to securely hold the required heavy-duty anchors.

• First, the load-bearing masonry is located and inspected.
• Then heavy-duty anchors or special thermal-break brackets are installed.
• On facades with thermal insulation (ETICS), these special spacers prevent dangerous thermal bridges.

The load capacity is calculated individually by a structural engineer and follows the applicable DIN standards. For privately used balconies, a live load of at least 400 kg per square meter is generally required.

Since the steel or aluminum parts are prefabricated to exact fit in the factory, on-site assembly is very quick. A professional crew needs only 1 to 2 days for the actual installation of an average balcony.

Under German building law, there are hardly any exemption limits for balconies. Regardless of their square footage, they almost always require a permit.

Hot-dip galvanized steel or powder-coated aluminum are ideal for the load-bearing structure, as they are extremely weather-resistant. For the flooring, wood, WPC decking, or cast stone are commonly used.

Yes, an official building permit is generally mandatory. An add-on balcony changes the external facade and requires a building application reviewed in advance by the responsible building authority.

The railing must first and foremost serve as reliable fall protection. According to the state building code, the height must be at least 90 cm for fall heights up to 12 meters, and a mandatory 110 cm for greater heights.

Yes, retrofitting is easily feasible on almost all existing buildings. In most cases, self-supporting balconies on posts are chosen, since they put hardly any load on the structural integrity of the existing masonry.
