Not all properties in Gloucester are flat and square — and that’s where custom balustrade fabrication really comes into play. Whether you're dealing with stairs, uneven terrain or tight outdoor areas, we can build something that works with your layout, not against it. My aluminium and stainless steel balustrades are designed to stay straight, secure and corrosion-resistant for the long haul. If you’re a builder looking for a reliable fabricator, or a homeowner wanting something custom for a new extension, We’ll take care of it from measurements to delivery or install. We can even match existing finishes if you’re working on a partial replacement.
- Works for new builds or retrofits
- Designed for homes, units & outdoor areas

You don’t have to settle for off-the-shelf fittings, we’ll help you get a smarter, safer setup that looks good too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a balustrade for decks or stairs above a certain height?
Yes. In most Australian states, including NSW, a balustrade is legally required for any deck, balcony, or raised platform over 1 metre above ground level. For stairs, a balustrade or handrail is generally required when there are more than four risers. Regulations also outline specific heights, spacing, and load requirements, so it’s important to ensure your balustrade complies — especially if you’re building or renovating in Gloucester.
What’s the difference between aluminium and stainless steel balustrades?
Aluminium balustrades are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and more cost-effective, making them great for residential use. Stainless steel, on the other hand, offers a higher-end look with extra strength and resistance to wear, which is ideal for commercial properties or coastal exposure. Both materials offer long lifespans with low maintenance, but your choice may come down to aesthetic preference, budget, and application.
Can a balustrade be installed on uneven or sloped areas?
Absolutely. Custom balustrades are especially useful on sloped ground, multi-level decks or staggered stairs. Unlike pre-fab kits, custom fabrication allows for exact measurements and angled joints that match your site’s contours. If your Gloucester property includes tricky terrain or elevation changes, having a made-to-measure balustrade ensures a clean finish and a safe, functional barrier without gaps or instability.
Are glass panels an option for balustrades?
Yes, glass infill panels are a popular option for aluminium or stainless steel balustrades. They provide a sleek, open look without compromising safety. Glass is especially useful in areas with views, as it allows visibility while still meeting fall protection standards. For Gloucester homes with elevated decks or scenic surrounds, a glass-panel balustrade can enhance both safety and style — just ensure it’s made from toughened safety glass.
