Accessible to All

Our Rail to Ramp Balustrade range has been designed with concealed fixings to provide a smooth, continuous handrail to ensure compliance with the regulations. Being DDA compliant means our ramps are set to certain gradients to suit all access.

The balustrade can be powder coated in any RAL colour to enhance the handrail or balustrade and provide a visual contrast that is not cold to the touch, as required by the legislation. Due to the nature of the product being modular, the handrail can be adjusted via the grub screw on-site so no hot works are needed.

Infills

Toughened Safety Glass

As one of our most popular infill specifications, toughened safety glass provides a versatile and adaptable option. Tested in accordance with BS EN12600 Class 1, toughened safety glass panel infills can be clear or tinted depending on your needs or we could even create a Bespoke Etched Design if your aesthetics desire it.

Perforated Panels

Perforated panel infills can be powder coated in a range of colours and finishes. They provide a robust and durable option for high-traffic areas.

Horizontal Rail

Providing classic styling, our horizontal railed infills can be powder coated in a range of colours and finishes. The number of rails can vary according to preference and need depending on the heights needed to comply with regulations.

Base Fixed

Neaco’s base fixing detail utilises our custom extruded profile base plate, providing a solid platform for the stanchion to fix onto.

Side Fixed

Neaco’s side fixed detail allows the stanchions to be fixed on the side of any structure including structural steelwork, concrete and masonry.

Grout Fixed

Neaco’s grout fixed detail requires core holes to be drilled on-site, please note core drilling is a wet trade so we advise this is done before any final finishes are applied.

Standard Colours

Our R2R balustrade can be manufactured in mill finish or powder-coated in a wide range of RAL colours. The balustrade can be utilised for internal and external applications. The system benefits from a Nylon powder coating which provides enhanced durability and allows Neaco to offer an industry-leading guarantee. Bespoke RAL colours can be achieved as we have our own in-house powder coating plant. The powder coating gives the balustrade a satin-smooth finish which is non-chip, permanent, hardwearing and abrasion-resistant. Handrails have excellent insulation properties, are warm to the touch and are comfortable to handle.

“We chose a green finish for the ground floor and handrails leading downwards, in contrast to a blue finish for the first floor and handrails leading upwards. We are very pleased with the results.”

FAQ’s

What is a modular system?

Modular systems provide a huge range of modular components which are precision- manufactured off-site to an exacting standard, delivered to the site and then assembled on-site. This means factory-controlled quality, faster installation, less mess, less waste and less energy consumption than products which are fabricated on-site. Spectrum's modular components are assembled with an internal connection system which requires no external fixtures and no welding for an ultra-smooth finish.

Why do Neaco manufacture in aluminium?

Aluminium is a great building material for many reasons: it provides maintenance-free durability and is also non-toxic, corrosive-free, noncombustible and 100% recyclable - a particularly useful feature for our Genesis industrial system designed for eco-friendly performance in the harshest environments. The permanent finish of neaco's nylon powder coating - a standard specification on most Spectrum systems - provides smooth, clean lines for comfortable touch and high aesthetic value. It's also worth noting that our stainless steel systems provide many similar benefits.

Are our products supply only or can Neaco supply and install them?

Neaco can provide either package you desire. Our balconies are designed for fast installation, particularly our Juliet balconies which are available in packs of standard sizes and delivered within 3 weeks of ordering with all components ready to assemble. If you would instead have neaco take care of the installation, we can arrange for our team of fitters to carry out the work.

Do neaco offer bespoke solutions?

Yes, absolutely. Over the years we have worked with numerous architects and designers to incorporate bespoke features outside of our standard specifications, including light fittings to the top of stanchions, etched designs to glass infills and structural glass installed at unusual angles. We pride ourselves on the flexibility and adaptability of our technical support services, so please feel free to discuss your particular requirements with one of our team.
