Are Metal Balustrades the Right Choice for Your Project?

Metal balustrades act as a fundamental safety feature in both public and private spaces. If you’re securing a staircase, balcony or raised area, metal handrails are designed to enhance safety, reduce the risk of falls, and deliver a modern, professional finish to any environment.

Why choose metal handrails from Steelcraft?

Modern finish

Steelcraft handrails offer a sleek, contemporary appearance that complements both traditional and modern architecture. With a range of customisable finishes and fittings, wall mounted, floor mounted or staircase integrated, our handrails bring form and functionality to your space. Plus, they are low maintenance and resist dirt and corrosion better than materials like wood.

Hygiene and health

According to Time Magazine, stair & escalator handrails are among the most bacteria-prone surfaces in the workplace. Our metal options are easier to clean, making them ideal for high-traffic areas in offices, healthcare facilities and public buildings.

Built to last

Metal is the go-to material for strength and longevity. Unlike other materials, it will not warp or split over time. That makes our balustrades the smart choice for any setting where reliability and performance are essential. And when it does reach the end of its life it is 100% recyclable.

Safety

Metal handrails eliminate risks like splinters, and they go far beyond minor injury prevention. Our products are designed to resist impact, corrosion, and structural failure, making them a robust safeguard against trips and falls.

Effortless maintenance

Steelcraft metal handrails are incredibly easy to maintain. A quick wipe with a mild cleaning solution keeps them looking pristine, ideal for busy commercial sites or homes that value both safety and style.

Is metal right for your project?

Steelcraft metal balustrades are suitable for a range of indoor and outdoor applications:

Residential Use

Ideal for staircases, balconies and elevated areas, metal handrails are especially beneficial for homes with children, elderly residents, or anyone with limited mobility. They are easy to clean, low maintenance, and perfect for daily use.

Commercial Use
