What is a balustrade?

A balustrade is a series of balusters that are placed vertically between rails to provide support to a structure and ensure that it prevents people from falling. Balustrades were commonly made from stone or wood in older architecture, though modern architecture makes use of metal more regularly. Balustrades must be strong and able to withstand pressure so that it does not collapse when tested. If a balustrade does not meet its strength requirements, its purpose will not be served and there could be dire consequences. 

Why galvanized balustrades?

As we mentioned above, balustrades must be strong, as they act as a barrier between a person and a fall that could lead to serious injuries. Galvanized balustrades are impervious to corrosion from environmental factors, both on their exterior and interior. This means that you will not have to worry about issues such as rust affecting the integrity of your balustrade. Galvanized materials are also easy to clean and require extraordinarily little maintenance, which means that they do not cost you tons of money in the long run. Compare this to traditional materials used to produce balustrades and the cost of galvanized balustrades looks practically non-existent in the long run.

Cost-effective safety

Because galvanized materials do not wear as quickly as other materials, you will not have to replace your balustrade nearly as often as you would where other materials are considered. This means that your initial investment is the only one that you will incur over the lifespan of your balustrade. Even when maintenance or repairs are needed, the costs involved are significantly lower than as they are with other materials. This, coupled with the fact that galvanized balustrades are less likely to break or fail as a result of corrosion, means that it is a more affordable, safer option.
