looking for similar thing as well but the investment is large (>10k). Some of residents in my condo have tried applying but got rejected. Some proceed to installed without approval.

Hi! I am looking into putting in glass curtains as well for my 3 balconies.

If you do not mind can you please share your experiences and the contractor who you used? I am at the moment liaising with the company called Glass Curtains. I would like to make a good decision before I sign the contract.

Thank you very much in advance.

Regards

can anyone share the experience? I am also looking at enclosing my balcony but got to reconsider with this recent news.

I have seen many HDB flats and condos enclosing the balconies.

I am thinking of covering my balcony with frameless glass curtain with blind curtains to block the afternoon sun and rain.

According to  URA website specifies the following in regards to enclosing a balcony .

S/N : 33 

Installation of grilles/screens to approved balconies in all residential developments, provided that 

1. the balconies had been approved as covered balconies, and , 

2. the balconies comply with the requisite building setback.

URA's approval is not required if the screens are retractable and allow the balcony to be naturally ventilated at
all times . Please ensure that necessary approval from the Management Corporation is obtained.

S / N : 34 

Enclosing of approved balconies by glass/window in landed housing developments only, including strata-landed housing developments,
provided that:

1. the balconies had been approved as covered balconies, and

2. the balconies comply with the requisite building setback.

In which case no approval is required to be taken from URA

Can I use any of the above to enclose my balcony in new CONDO

Anyone care to share their experience they have done similar work on their new condo?

Thanks.
