How strong are fittings of the glass side piece? If an adult pushes it or falls against it heavily does it stay totally rigid? If so then any pressure-fitting stairgate eg www.argos.co.uk/product/3798742 would be fine.

You could make a u shaped price of wood which slots over the glass banister to protect the glass and then have a wall mounted gate attached to the wall which closes against the protective wood and have a catch on the wood to close it.

Phone a professional baby gate installer.
