Railings for stairs, terraces, balconies and pools — sized to the opening, with protection matched to the distance from the sea.
A railing is the one part of a house people touch every day, so poor work shows immediately. We dress the handrail until it is smooth to the hand, and keep the infill gaps under 12 cm — the requirement wherever there are children.
Interior and exterior railings for stairs, terraces, balconies and pools. Most often stainless steel with glass or cable infill, and mild steel with powder coating where the architecture calls for it.
Toughened glass 8–10 mm in stainless clamps. It does not block the view, which makes it the first choice for terraces facing the sea.
Horizontal cables Ø4 mm in a tensioned frame. Cheaper than glass and easier to maintain near salt water.
Classic bar or louvre infill, galvanised and coated in a RAL colour. For inland houses and for the wrought-iron look.
Stainless AISI 316 with toughened glass, at the height required for pools. The material was chosen for the proximity of the sea.
By the sea it is the protection that decides, not the thickness of the steel. Before we quote, we ask where the structure will stand and how far it is from the water.
The strongest and cheapest option, but only with galvanising and powder coating. Left unprotected on the coast it rusts within a single season.
For handrails and railings by the sea. AISI 316 where there is salt and spray, 304 for interiors and the inland areas.
Light and it does not rust, so we choose it for balcony railings on tall buildings and wherever nobody will be maintaining the structure.
Immersion in molten zinc protects the inside of the profile as well. Powder coating in your RAL colour goes on top.
