Spectrum® Rail2Ramp Balustrade with Centric Stanchions

Balustrade system designed to provide access for all - especially those who find it difficult to negotiate changes of level.

The aluminium, powder-coated balustrade is available in a wide range of RAL colours including metallic colours. Bespoke RAL colours can be achieved as Neaco have its own in-house powder coating plant. The powder coating is offered in both polyester and nylon.

The powder coating gives the balustrade a satin-smooth finish which is non-chip, permanent, hard-wearing and abrasion-resistant. Handrails have excellent insulation properties, are warm to the touch and are comfortable to handle.

The modular system offers the versatility to meet virtually any design requirement, no matter how complex. The balustrade is engineered to close tolerances, with quality-formed bends eliminating the need for unsightly mitred joints. Component parts are mechanically secured with concealed fixings, requiring no welding and ensuring rapid assembly on site (all fixings are supplied). The balustrade can also be combined with Neaco's Spectrum Stainless Steel Balustrade to achieve the Duplex system.
