Balustrade Accessories

Q: How do I take care of my balustrade brackets?

Balustrade brackets need regular maintenance to ensure they retain their strength and structural integrity over time. Dusting will prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt particles, and a wash with mild detergent will remove any tougher residues. This avoids decay and deterioration. Stainless steel balustrades require polishing, while wooden balustrades may need more staining in the future.

Balustrade accessories are the perfect finishing touch to any staircase or balcony railing. While balustrades provide an important safety function for every staircase, they are also a fundamental aesthetic component of a home. The right balustrade accessories can completely transform a staircase, either catching the eye or adding only a subtle touch. Upgrade your balustrades by adding in some balusters, balustrade posts, and your choice of mini or square posts to make the whole setup pop and stand out. ArchiPro features only the best balustrade accessories from trusted suppliers in Australia.

Types of balustrade accessories

Balusters

Balusters are the legs of a balustrade, used to support the railings in a fence-like formation. Both decorative and simple designs are available in Australia.

Balustrade post

Unlike a baluster, balustrade posts are larger and positioned at either end of a staircase. These work to stabilise the structure.

Glass balustrade mini-posts

Glass balustrades are a visually enticing option that suits many contemporary builds in Australia. Toughened glass is generally the strongest option.

Square balustrade posts

The sleek, straight lines of square balustrade posts have made them a mainstay in modern homes. These work especially well when paired with metal or glass.

The advantages of high-quality balustrade accessories

Balustrade accessories are an important finishing touch for any staircase project. Ranging from traditional, rounded frames made of timber to modern designs with metal hardware, installing high-quality balustrade accessories can complement the aesthetic flair of your home. They are also integral to the structural robustness of your staircase structure, ensuring that all the separate components are held together strongly. High quality, for instance, balustrade posts immediately catch the eye as a decorative feature, while still playing an important role in the integrity of the architecture.

How to choose balustrade accessories that are right for you

The right balustrade for your home should first and foremost structurally support your staircase. Balustrade posts and balusters need to be able to support the weight of railings and hardware, or in the case of glass balustrades, uphold any glass panels. Timber balustrades are incredibly strong while providing a timeless appeal that can suit any home. Accessories for metal balustrades are increasing in popularity in Australia due to their sleek, contemporary feel and reliable strength.

What materials are balustrade brackets made of?

Balustrade brackets are most commonly made of timber, stainless steel and wrought iron, although glass has recently become a more popular option. Professionals in Australia will generally recommend stronger materials as brackets have to hold the entire structure securely. The best material will blend seamlessly with the aesthetic of your home.
