A balustrade arrangement according to this disclosure comprises a plurality of slats of monolithic toughened glass arranged in series substantially along a lateral direction. The slats each have a width in the lateral direction up to 300 mm from a first lateral side to a second lateral side of a slat. Adjacent slats are spaced apart from each other by a spacing gap of at least 6 mm, the spacing gap being smaller than the width of the slats. The slats are arranged so that, when one slat is removed from the balustrade to form a breakage gap between adjacent remaining slats, the width of the breakage gap in the lateral direction is at most 500 mm. Also disclosed is a balcony incorporating such a balustrade and a method for the installation of such a balustrade.
