PROJECT
Curved terrace and pool deck bronze balustrades with gates.
FABRICATION DETAILS
Solid bronze rod (18mm & 22mm), 220 x 12mm bronze fixing plate and bespoke fastenings.
To achieve this elegant, unique and eye-catching balustrade, our highly experienced fabrication team fabricated and installed this full-length curved balustrade to the highest quality on both the terrace and around the pool. The addition of our custom bronze heated towel rails inside cohesively linked the interior design with the bronze exterior balustrade and overall landscaping in this beautiful part of the world.
SRS’s skilled team machined all 18mm vertical rods in-house for a spigot connection system and welded them to the curved 22mm horizontal bronze rod handrail with specialised imported welding wire.
The 220 x 12mm thick bronze fixing plate attached the balustrade to the concrete substrate, incorporating the waterproofing membrane into the design meant cantilevering the fixing plate which required precision workmanship and custom bronze plated fixings. The bright bronze has aged beautifully to the red/browns expected of bronze alloy.
