When functionality, architectural vision, and public safety converge in a large-scale infrastructure project, only the most trusted and innovative partners are invited to the table. VIVA Railings is proud to have contributed to one of the most ambitious airport upgrades in the United States — the transformation of the Denver International Airport (DEN) Concourse and Great Hall.
Airports demand more than beauty. They require safety, durability, and thoughtful design integration. For this landmark project, VIVA was entrusted with the design, engineering and installation of these railing systems:
These systems were chosen for their modern aesthetic, structural integrity, and low-profile design that enhances the architectural transparency and openness of the terminal.
The SHOE System features sleek, tempered laminated glass panels anchored in a base shoe channel — delivering a clean, minimalist profile with no visible posts. At DEN, the SHOE System maximizes sightlines and ambient lighting while providing essential fall protection for passengers. This system is ICC/IBC compliant, engineered to withstand commercial-level impact forces and ideal for large crowds and public venues.

The CUSTOM WINDWALL system at DEN is a custom post-supported laminated glass wind barrier designed for safety and environmental control. It is a favorite for outdoor concourses and terraces due to its ability to provide wind mitigation without obstructing views or aesthetics. In the Denver project, it functions as both a safety barrier and a design element, reinforcing the airport’s theme of openness and modernity.
