Framed Aluminium Balustrades
Description
Provista Balustrade Systems Framed Aluminium balustrade solutions feature modern aluminium post and handrail profile designs suiting both classic and contemporary building design. Hidden post-fixings when face-fixing to a deck structure provide an ultra-clean look.
There’s a choice of flat or rounded handrail profiles and infill panels are made up of a square-section baluster. The two main styles are Villa, where the baluster panel meets the underside of the upper handrail and is held at the bottom within a lower rail, and Tudor, where there is a gap between the upper handrail and an additional rail. The baluster panel fits into this rail and a lower rail.
