When you’re planning for balustrades at your project or site, you need to consider the following key design issues, so users are safer, you enjoy a cost-effective railing system and you delight your clients with the lowest total cost of ownership.
Safety and compliance
Safety is a key factor. You want to ensure that people are safe wherever they travel on your site or sites. And compliance is paramount.
The environment
Will your railings be exposed to harsh coastal conditions or in areas with chemical fumes? Are they inside a warehouse? Bordering a cycle path?
Each situation requires specific design features, so you keep workers, cyclists, pedestrians and drivers safe, and your site is compliant.
Long-term maintenance costs
The ideal for you and your clients is to offer the lowest lifetime cost of ownership. Low maintenance costs are essential. With Moddex modular railings, it’s easy to strip out a damaged piece and replace it.
