Stretto – 11
A steel grating with closely spaced horizontal flat bars, which create a distinctive lateral appearance and provide diffused visual screening for balustrades or cladding.
Application
Suitable for vertical applications such as balconies and balustrading.
Description
A grating for vertical applications that is particularly suited to balustrading. It has an arrangement of closely spaced transverse bars that generates a striking visual presence with good through-visibility, and provides a good level of security.
The process of pressure locking produces a grating material with perfectly formed intersections, which are ideally suited to residential projects such as balconies and balustrading.
Features and benefits:
- Different panel types are available which offer alternative spacings between the horizontal flat bars at 11, 22, 33 or 44 mm centres.
- Vertical flat bars 25 x 2 mm or greater, to meet loading requirements.
- Horizontal flat transverse bars: 10 x 2 mm.
- Panels and posts can be supplied galvanized only, or galvanized and powder coated to any RAL colour.
