Bespoke balustrades and handrails that bring your staircase design to life

Bespoke balustrade solutions for commercial projects and high-end residential projects

Found lining many staircases, decks and terraces, a balustrade is, in its simplest form, a row of small columns topped by a handrail. Balustrades can be made from a variety of materials (like steel, stainless steel, brass, and aluminium balustrades) in a range of styles for both decorative and practical purposes. While they perform a very obvious function they also present a great opportunity to become the feature of any room or space they occupy.

Our speciality is creating unique, stylish and functional balustrades and barriers for apartment blocks, carparks and commercial buildings, whether you are renovating existing structures or planning something new.

In New Zealand, the council requires balustrades to pass a building code of compliance if the fall from height is over 1 metre high. Subsequently, we work alongside our clients to ensure they meet the building code whether they are retrofitting an existing residential balustrade or wishing to renovate one that is non-code compliant to meet current legislation. At SRS Group, we offer a variety of solutions to meet your budget and expectations.

We’ve installed thousands of balustrades across Auckland and NZ with a few examples from previous projects below.

Commercial Balustrades

We excel at creating bespoke staircase designs that impress and produce a number of commercial balustrade types:

• Commercial balustrade systems
• Vertical wire infill balustrades
• Mesh infill balustrades
• Custom stainless or galvanised steel balustrades
• Timber balustrades with wire infill

SRS Group offers custom-designed balustrade fabrication in a wide range of materials. From tough, hard-wearing, low maintenance galvanised steel (popular for large commercial projects) through to sophisticated and sleek stainless steel, popular for high spec, architecturally-designed productions.

We have also created timber balustrades and decking by working in partnership with a local, experienced builder.

For the ultimate effect, they can even be powder coated for a coloured finish with LED lighting for added impact.

When you are in the initial phases of your staircase design, speak to us first to discuss how we can bring your stairway areas to life. This can include the use of foliage or hanging installations from above using our cables and rods.

Balustrade infills

Do you have an existing handrail, but need a solution for an infill to complete your staircase? We are experiencing exponential demand for designs that complement unique modern architecture. At SRS Group we work predominantly with two types of balustrade infills – tensile mesh and wire – which are both created from 316 marine grade stainless steel and have seen climbing demand due to the cost-effective, attractive and low maintenance nature of the material.

316 marine grade stainless steel is durable, robust and recyclable, making it a very appealing option for high-end residential balustrades as well as commercial and civil projects.

Wire infills use cables that offers a contemporary look that is view-friendly and maintenance free. Our tensile mesh lends itself to a number of environments, but is particularly striking where it is used to complement an overall industrial design theme. Tensile mesh can take a project to the next level with its unique ability to be created in almost any colour imaginable.
