OBS

L'armature en métal (plus rarement en bois) est scellée profondément dans le mur avec des tirants, et souvent soutenue par des consoles, ou même par des colonnettes en fonte. Pour le vitrage, l'utilisation de verre armé et de plaques plastiques translucides est recommandée pour éviter les dangers de chute de morceaux de verre.
