Where can Fortitude\u2122 Steel Railings & Balustrades be used?<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Typically, steel railings and balustrades have been deployed on commercial developments and large residential balconies. However, in recent years, we\u2019ve seen a huge increase in the usage of this versatile system across domestic projects, multi-story housing developments, and exterior decking areas. Perhaps the biggest increase in usage is from the residential and new-build sector, with powder-coated black steel railings<\/b> proving very popular across modern housing estates. The understated appeal, superior safety compliance, and architectural styling make Fortitude systems much more visually appealing than timber alternatives while remaining highly cost-effective.<\/p>\n

Because we supply components and pre-engineered panels designed for straightforward assembly, the job of installing is made far easier for contractors.

How to buy.<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Now you have more insight into the benefits and use cases of Fortitude steel railings and balustrades, you’ll need to know how to buy this product:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 \u00a0Measure and plan<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Choose your style (Traditional Panels<\/b>, Classic<\/b>, Contemplation<\/b>, or Timeless<\/b>)<\/p>\n

As with almost any architectural metalwork project, your first task is to measure the linear run or balcony perimeter where you’re installing the railing. Because this solution uses modular components and panels, you’ll then need to calculate which combination and quantity will best cater for that layout. Additionally, you will want to account for corner posts, end posts, and handrail connectors to ensure a rigid, compliant structure.<\/p>\n

Once measured and plotted out, you will need to consider fixings\u2014we supply options suitable for diverse substrates, whether you are bolting down to reinforced concrete, stone, or structural steelwork. Firm ground or solid structural substrates provide an ideal base for secure face or top-fixing solutions.<\/p>\n

Finally – you should consider the styling and finish of your installation. Available from F.H.Brundle<\/b>, options include sleek powder-coated finishes that protect the metal against weathering while delivering a premium architectural appearance.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
