Abstract
One aspect relates to a frameless glass fencing hinge (10) for a frameless glass fencing installation a first leaf assembly (12) for operative attachment to a first glass panel or building structure. The frameless glass fencing hinge (10) includes a second leaf assembly (14) for operative attachment to a second glass panel. The second leaf assembly (14) is operatively adapted to undergo pivotal movement about a hinge axis (16) so as to move the second glass panel between a closed position an open position. The first leaf assembly (12) and the second leaf assembly (14) define a cam formation (16) operatively adapted to cause the second leaf assembly (14) to undergo axial movement along the hinge axis (16) between a rest position and a biased position when the second leaf (14) assembly undergoes pivotal movement about the hinge axis (16).
