Accredited, documented, and built to the standards your project is signed off against.

  • BS 6180 barrier loading: the loading standard your balustrade has to pass to be signed off.
  • BS 5395 and BS 8300: stair geometry and accessibility, evidenced rather than asserted.
  • BS EN 1090, UKCA marked: the fabrication execution standard behind every fixing and frame.
  • ISO 9001 quality management: a quality system audited end to end, not a badge on a footer.
  • CHAS Elite, SafeContractor & ConstructionLine Gold: the pre-qualification pack your procurement team lifts straight into a PQQ.
  • GBP 10m public and GBP 10m employers liability: published figures, because your procurement team needs them on file.
  • Directly employed, CSCS-carded site teams: the people on your site are ours, not subcontracted, so one team owns the result.

FAQs

Yes. We work across Yorkshire and beyond, with our own design, fabrication and installation teams.

Yes. We design, fabricate to BS EN 1090, and install glass balustrade with our own directly employed teams, so one team owns the project from drawing to handover, and the aftercare that follows.

Every project is priced on its drawings, tonnage, finish and access. Send us a drawing or a one line brief and you will get a fixed quote, not a ballpark.

Standard programmes run 4 to 6 weeks from approved drawings to installed. Tighter programmes are quoted against your deadline.
