💡 Expert Opinion Across Turkey
The biggest challenge for open-air cafés, restaurants, hotel verandas, and private gardens is unruly wind ruining seating comfort. Real Wind Breaker Glass Systems bring both a wind shield and a stylish architectural touch to your space with a vertically rising gas-piston mechanism and a high-aesthetic 1.5mm galvanized planter module.
Comfort That Rises at a Single Touch: Smart Wind Breaker Technology
The biggest commercial loss for open-air hospitality businesses and standalone terraces is empty outdoor tables whenever sudden strong winds pick up. Real Wind Breaker Glass Systems instantly dampen wind gusts thanks to a fixed lower cassette and a telescoping upper glass panel that slides vertically. While closed, the system acts as a 110 cm glass handrail (balustrade); when the upper panel is lightly pressed, the released, patented internal gas-piston mechanism (Code: TA04.04.00.04) effortlessly lifts the glass panel to a protective height of 180 cm.
Our heavy-duty extruded aluminum post profiles used in the engineering design (T.2479 Fixed Post: 2.718 kg/m, T.2481 Fixed Horizontal: 1.472 kg/m, T.2480 Moving Post: 1.459 kg/m) do not vibrate or flex even in stormy coastal winds. The 6mm Tempered Rounded-Edge Şişecam safety glass used in the panels has high impact resistance, protecting your family and customers against blows from hard objects from outside.
Our 1.5mm Colored Galvanized Planter (TA95.00.50.42) and Braked Plate Planter Castor (TA95.00.50.43) option, designed for mobile-use requirements, lets you roll your wind breaker to any open area whenever you like. Soil, flowers, or weights placed inside the planter create a high static center of balance, while locking the brake mechanism reduces the risk of sliding or tipping over to zero, even in storms.

Piston-Operated Wind Breaker Solution to a Wind Problem at an Istanbul Bebek Waterfront Restaurant
Project Need: Our client, operating along the Bebek waterfront in Istanbul, was unable to open 12 seaside tables to customers in the afternoons because of sudden northeasterly winds, resulting in significant lost revenue. Municipal zoning restrictions also prevented them from building a fixed structure.
Real's Solution: We installed a custom Real Piston-Operated Wind Breaker Glass System made up of 6 modules for our client's outdoor area, with lockable braked industrial castors and a 1.5mm galvanized planter featuring live flower décor. We integrated 6mm tempered rounded-edge glass and a locking gas-piston mechanism.
Result: The sea breeze was fully brought under control thanks to the wind breakers. Since the system is classed as movable, no zoning issues arose. Our client began operating all 12 tables at 100% occupancy around the clock, adding a luxurious atmosphere to the venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 20 most commonly asked technical questions about Wind Breaker Glass Systems:
1. What is a wind breaker glass system and how does it work? ▼
A wind breaker is a vertically moving glass barrier designed to cut the wind in open areas. Thanks to the built-in locking gas-piston mechanism (Code: TA04.04.00.04), the upper glass panel is lightly pressed and smoothly raised or lowered.
2. What type of glass is used in wind breaker systems? ▼
Our systems standardly use 6mm Tempered Rounded-Edge Şişecam safety glass with high impact resistance.
3. Does the planter-based mobile wind breaker model tip over? ▼
No. When the 1.5mm galvanized steel planter body (Code: TA95.00.50.42) is filled with soil, flowers, or decorative stones, it gives the system a high center-of-mass weight. Locking the braked plate castors (Code: TA95.00.50.43) also prevents tipping even in stormy weather.
4. How long does the gas-piston mechanism last? ▼
Our special locking, stainless gas pistons are heavy-duty mechanisms tested through thousands of open-close cycles. They operate trouble-free for years without wear.
5. Does it create zoning or permit issues for cafés and restaurants? ▼
Since wind breaker systems do not form a fixed reinforced-concrete structure and are classed as movable furniture on locking castors, they don't run into zoning permit obstacles with local authorities.
6. Are wind breaker height dimensions standardized? ▼
While closed, the system acts as a fixed handrail at an average height of 110 cm; once the piston is extended, the total height reaches 180 cm, fully cutting wind at head level.
7. What grade are the wind breaker aluminum profiles? ▼
Our profiles are manufactured from 6063 T6 architectural extrusion aluminum. The T.2479 Fixed Post (2.718 kg/m), T.2481 Fixed Horizontal (1.472 kg/m), and T.2480 Moving Post (1.459 kg/m) have heavy wall thicknesses.
8. Does it corrode or rust by the seaside? ▼
No. Real Marine Series Qualicoat powder-coated aluminum profiles, M8 stainless fiber-reinforced nuts, inox screws, and galvanized-coated planter hardware are corrosion-guaranteed against sea-salt humidity.
9. Are wind breaker glass panels raised manually by hand? ▼
When you lightly touch the top rail of the glass to release the lock, the internal gas piston effortlessly pushes the glass upward on its own. To close it, the glass is pressed back down until it locks.
10. Can wind breaker modules be joined side by side? ▼
Yes. Thanks to special joint interface profiles and steel connecting elements, you can cover any length of coastline or terrace frontage seamlessly with side-by-side modules.
11. Can live plants be planted in the wind breaker's planter section? ▼
Yes. The 1.5mm colored electrostatic powder-coated galvanized planter body has water drainage holes. Live ivy, tulips, dwarf pines, or artificial decorative plants can be grown comfortably.
12. Does the wind breaker let rainwater through? ▼
The system is primarily designed to block wind and blown spray. Bristle strips and an EPDM gasket structure between panels block about 90% of rain passage.
13. Which color options are available? ▼
Anthracite gray (RAL 7016), black (RAL 9005), and matte anodized are our standard colors. On request, any RAL powder-coat color matching your building's or café's concept can be applied.
14. How many hours does wind breaker installation take? ▼
Modules are pre-assembled and piston-adjusted at our factory before shipping; on-site installation typically takes between 1 and 3 hours, depending on the number of modules.
15. What happens if the wind breaker glass shatters or breaks? ▼
The tempered Şişecam glass we use breaks, if it ever does, into small, non-sharp granular pieces, preventing injury risk to customers or family members in the open area.
16. Does the wind breaker rattle or make noise in a storm? ▼
Plastic moving sliders and bristle-strip gaskets located in the heavy-duty aluminum post channels prevent the glass wings from moving or making noise in the wind.
17. Can the wind breaker be disassembled and stored for winter? ▼
Yes. Thanks to its modular, knock-down structure, the bolts can be removed and the unit stored at the end of the season, or castor-equipped models can be wheeled into any enclosed space you like.
18. How are wind breaker prices calculated? ▼
Prices are calculated per module based on the selected base type (Fixed Steel Foot vs. Galvanized Planter), castor mechanism, glass square footage, and color group.
19. What does the Soudal Soudaflex mastic application do? ▼
The professional Soudal 40FC polyurethane mastic (Code: TA40.01.09.05) we use at system joints dampens vibration, provides watertight sealing, and prevents shock from outdoor flexing.
20. What is the warranty period for Real Wind Breaker systems? ▼
Our wind breaker systems carry a full 2-year warranty against manufacturing and installation defects. Gas pistons carry a 5-year, and stainless aluminum profiles a 10-year, parts warranty.
