Further assisted by our polishing services, we produce high standards of stainless steel designed to stand out and shine, whether bespoke or standard structures.
The vertical posts and infills of balustrades line staircases, balconies, walkways, and even flat roofs; they provide an element of architectural design, as well as being a crucial safety feature designed to protect users from accidents. The timelessness of stainless steel balustrades is matched by the material’s durability in many environments, making stainless steel an ideal material when looking to balance aestheticism with functionality.
Bromsgrove Steel works alongside architects to ensure the stainless steel balustrades we manufacture meet project and safety specifications, whilst fulfilling design briefs.
Stainless steel balustrades used indoors can be regularly cleaned with soap and water or glass cleaner, as needed. It is possible to use appropriate cleaning chemicals to remove tough stains such as grease or paint, using a non-abrasive cloth and finishing with soap and water.
External stainless steel balustrades should be cleaned more regularly since they face increased contamination from environmental conditions. Though the chromium content in stainless steel gives it a natural protection against rust, this protection can be enhanced through cleaning with soap and water, and a non-abrasive cloth or material.
Further polishing the material with a steel cleaner can help maintain the integrity of the steel.
304-Grade and 316-Grade are common grades of stainless steel, both of which can be used for balustrades.
304-Grade stainless steel is corrosion resistant, meaning it does not require a protective coat. It is easy to maintain, particularly in internal spaces. In outdoor applications, 304-Grade can rust when exposed to harsh environments such as salty environments.
316-Grade has a higher corrosion resistance than 304, however this does mean it is a more expensive material to purchase. 316-Grade stainless can be used in harsher environmental conditions, or industrial environments, because of this.
Stainless Steel Balustrade Systems
To produce our leading stainless steel balustrades, Bromsgrove Steel uses only UKCA marked steel. Following inhouse CAD detailing, our expert engineers can perform cutting, bending and rolling, welding, and stainless steel polishing for the full fabrication of a balustrade system. We further offer glass infill for a complete product, which can be safely delivered to site with the use of Bromsgrove Steel’s transportation.
The fully qualified and experienced onsite team at Bromsgrove Steel are on hand to provide installation of balustrades, working alongside project managers and builders to ensure an efficient installation process.
Our comprehensive services can be carried out nationwide, up to execution class 2.
For stainless steel balustrades, Bromsgrove Steel can supply balustrade posts, as well as components such as end caps and balls, for a complete balustrade and handrail system. We manufacture bespoke and standardised products for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
