What we make

Steel and glass, cut to your line.

Everything below is fabricated in our Greenacre workshop and installed by the crew that made it. When the same team measures the job and fits it, nothing gets lost between a supplier and an installer.

Glass balustrades

Glass that holds the view, not the eye.

Frameless and semi-frameless glass on stainless spigots or a continuous channel base. Toughened and laminated to AS 1288, with the interlink and top-rail options certifiers ask for on balconies and stairs.

  • Frameless spigot
  • Channel-set
  • Semi-frameless
  • Pool fencing
  • Stair panels

See our glass balustrades page

Steel balustrades

Flat bar, rod and vertical infill.

The workhorse of the trade, built properly. Matte black powder coat, hot-dip galvanised or raw sealed steel, with vertical spacing that meets the NCC's no-climb and gap rules without looking like a cage.

  • Flat bar
  • Vertical rod
  • Blade infill
  • Powder coat
  • Galvanised

See our steel balustrades page

Handrails

Rails that read as one clean line.

Round or flat stainless, mild steel or timber-topped handrails for homes, strata blocks and commercial stairs. Wall-mounted or balustrade-fixed, with the continuity and grip clearance the code requires on egress paths.

  • Stainless round
  • Flat bar
  • Timber-topped
  • Wall-mounted
  • DDA compliant

See our handrails page

Staircases

The whole structure, not just the rail.

Steel stringers, floating treads and complete stair structures built to the architect's drawings. We fabricate the stair and its balustrade together, so the geometry lines up on site instead of being fought into place.

  • Mono-stringer
  • Zig-zag stringer
  • Floating treads
  • Feature stairs
  • External stairs

See our staircases page

Custom fabrication

If it is steel, we can make it.

Automatic sliding and swing gates, security doors and screens, awnings, privacy screens, fencing and structural steel and aluminium engineering. Bring a drawing, a photo or a rough sketch on the back of a plan and we will work out how to build it and what it needs to comply.

  • Automatic gates
  • Security doors
  • Awnings
  • Fencing
  • Aluminium
  • Structural steel

Balustrade questions, answered.

The things people ask us most before a quote. Every job is different, so treat these as a guide, not a ruling on your specific build.

How high does a balustrade have to be?
Under the National Construction Code, a barrier is generally required wherever there is a drop of more than one metre, and it usually needs to be at least one metre high above the floor, deck or stair nosing. Stairs can allow a lower rail in some cases. We confirm the exact height for your situation when we measure.
Do the gaps between balusters matter?
Yes. On a barrier protecting a fall, openings generally cannot let a 125mm sphere pass through, and where the drop is more than four metres the design has to avoid horizontal elements a child could climb between roughly 150mm and 760mm. We build to these rules so the job passes certification the first time.
Should I go with glass or steel?
Glass keeps a view open and suits balconies, pools and stairs where you do not want to block the outlook. Steel is tougher, cheaper per metre, and gives you matte black or a raw industrial look. Plenty of jobs mix the two: a steel frame or handrail with glass infill. Tell us the space and we will suggest what fits.
What kind of glass do you use?
Grade A safety glass to AS 1288, either toughened or laminated depending on where it sits and whether it needs to stay in place if it breaks. Balustrade glass is not the same as a shower screen, and we spec it for the load and the location.
How long does a job take?
Most residential jobs run one to three weeks from approved quote to installed, depending on the finish and how busy the powder coater or galvaniser is. We book the install date up front so you are not left guessing. Larger or fully custom work takes longer, and we tell you that before you commit.
Do you handle compliance and certification?
We build to AS 1170 for loads, the NCC for barrier heights and openings, and AS 1288 for glazing, and we hand over the documentation a certifier or strata report will ask for. If you are not sure what your job needs, send us the plans and we will walk you through it.

Not sure which system suits the job?

Send us the plans or a few photos. We will tell you what works, what it costs, and what the certifier will want to see.
