BALUSTRADES AND GUARDRAILS
Balustrades and guardrails are regarded as the best solution for preventing falls from height. They act as "collective" protection meaning that they are a preventative measure that requires no additional equipment or training to keep people safe from harm. As such they are at the top of the hierarchy of control.
Our wire systems are constructed from the highest quality stainless steel with fittings roll swaged onto the wire to give a professional and neat finish.
