๐ ๏ธ Project Overview
The property developer required a bespoke balcony railing system that would match the contemporary design of the home while ensuring long-term durability with minimal maintenance. Our team designed a clean, functional railing using mild steel, which was then hot-dip galvanised to protect it against Cumbriaโs harsh and often wet climate.
The finished result not only meets all current safety regulations but also enhances the architectural look of the property.
๐ง Our Fabrication Process
- Initial design and consultation with the builder and homeowner
- Accurate site measurement and planning
- In-house steel fabrication using precision MIG welding
- Hot-dip galvanising for corrosion resistance and longevity
- Professional on-site installation by our experienced fitters
From initial concept to final fit, everything was handled by the J Johnstone Engineering team to ensure top-quality results and seamless delivery.
โ The Result
The finished galvanised steel balcony railing provides a strong and stylish edge to the upper floor of the property. Its low-maintenance surface and industrial-modern design align perfectly with the home’s contemporary build.
The client was extremely pleased with the quality of the finish, the speed of installation, and the professionalism of our team.
