Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a balustrade and what is it used for?

    A balustrade is a barrier or railing system commonly used on staircases, balconies, decks, and walkways to prevent falls and provide safety. It typically consists of vertical posts, horizontal rails, and sometimes infill panels or decorative elements. Balustrades can be made from materials like steel, aluminium, glass, or timber, offering both safety and aesthetic appeal.

  • Are there safety standards for installing balustrades?

    Yes, balustrades must comply with specific safety standards and building codes that outline minimum height requirements, spacing between rails or balusters, and structural strength. These regulations help prevent accidents, especially in elevated areas. Meeting these standards ensures the balustrade provides effective fall protection while maintaining durability and reliability over time, especially in high-traffic or outdoor environments.

  • What is the difference between a balustrade and a handrail?

    A balustrade is a complete railing system that includes posts, rails, and infill panels or balusters, designed to prevent falls from elevated areas. A handrail, on the other hand, is a single rail intended for grip and support along stairs or ramps. While balustrades often include handrails, not all handrails are part of a balustrade system.
