Choosing the perfect balustrade systems

Building projects can be hugely demanding and complex. In order to achieve the results you’re after, it’s necessary to consider each and every detail. Even small imperfections in finished buildings can spoil the overall effect, especially in high aesthetic architectural products. Is there really such a thing as a perfect balustrade.

With this in mind, it’s well worth putting plenty of time and effort into choosing suitable balustrade systems. There is no shortage of options these days and rushing the process can be detrimental to visual effect, longevity or even safety. Here at Sapphire, we’re experts when it comes to these solutions and should have exactly what you’re looking for.

Crystal clear

For example, perhaps our Crystal design combines an elegantly minimal look with structural strength and robust performance, meaning its the perfect balustrade to avoid the need to compromise on either aesthetics or practicality.

It is ideal for large atria and other high profile applications and features structural glass panels that provide a perfectly clear view and an understated lightness that can complement both contemporary and classical buildings.

There are many benefits associated with this system. For instance, Crystal:

Offers unimpeded views without any vertical support posts
Is suitable for both internal and external applications
Comes in various glass thicknesses and types
Has slotted, cantilever or offset handrail options

Whether you want stainless steel, timber or powder-coated steel handrails, we’ll be able to accommodate your requirements.

Versatility and resilience

Another option is our Onyx system. This tubular stainless steel range represents the perfect balustrade in versatility and resilience and, as well as looking superb, it is also low-maintenance. This makes these metal balustrades ideal for communal areas like retail, commercial, residential, education and leisure settings.

Its advantages include the fact that it:

Is suitable for internal and external applications
Comes with a comprehensive range of fixing solutions
Is available in a satin or bright mirror polish finish
Is compatible with raking, curved and level applications

All of our balustrade and handrail systems are designed to meet British Standards, UK Regulations and NHBC requirements. These requirements cover DDA (Disabled Disability Act), Fire, access, fall protection requirements etc. Capping it all, we offer a 12-year warranty with our balustrade systems.

A touch of elegance

Jasper solutions may be set to be the perfect balustrade if you’re looking for adding a touch of elegance and creativity. This is a relatively modern product and features a flat-baluster system with slim, contemporary sightlines.

The system works equally well in both level and raking situations and you can take your pick from single or double flat balusters available in either stainless or powder-coated steel. Each one is individually made, meaning you can create bespoke feature shapes through either laser or water-jet cutting, without drastic cost implications.

If you go for this product, you will benefit from:

Various infill options
A wide range of customised options
A choice of internal or external use
