Why is it beneficial to install a balustrade?

Balustrades are a form of fencing that can often add a finishing touch to stairs and balconies. They are an important consideration, particularly when it comes to safety. In addition, they are usually required by law for elevated areas.

Can I design custom balustrades?

Yes, you can get custom balustrade designs. There are some balustrade contractors in Rustenburg that offer this option, however, you should be prepared to pay more money for this. Buying a pre-made structure is usually cheaper and you can buy them in bulk. In the event that repairs are required, it will also be far easier to source the parts that you need.

What grade of steel should be used for balustrades?

Generally speaking, carbon steel is usually used for balustrades. However, your installers in Rustenburg should have the answers for you and be qualified enough to recommend the correct grade of steel (or any material). It’s important to choose a reputable installer, with references, who will be able to advise and justify the material grade suitable for your application. If you are still uncertain, you can approach a variety of difference companies in Rustenburg for advice and quotes.

When should I install balustrades in the building process?

Install the balustrades as late as possible. It’s advisable to install them after building and painting. This prevents them from getting damaged while other renovations are happening. It’s easy for paint or concrete to end up on the balustrades if you’re not careful. Furthermore, it would be frustrating to remove or replace the structure after making a huge effort to install it in the first place.
