Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the minimum height requirement for balustrades in NSW?

    In New South Wales, the minimum height for balustrades is regulated under the National Construction Code (NCC). For decks, balconies, and platforms where the fall is greater than 1 metre, the balustrade must be at least 1 metre (1000mm) high. For staircases, the height is measured vertically from the stair nosing and must be a minimum of 865mm. These requirements are designed to ensure fall protection and occupant safety. It’s important that all balustrades meet these standards, especially in residential buildings, to ensure compliance and reduce liability. Balustrades must also resist horizontal and vertical loads as outlined in Australian Standard AS1170.1.

  • Is glass a safe option for balustrades?

    Yes, glass balustrades are considered very safe when built and installed to meet Australian Standards. They use toughened safety glass or laminated glass, which are engineered to withstand impact and resist breakage. Toughened glass, also known as tempered glass, is heat-treated to increase its strength and, if broken, shatters into small, blunt pieces to reduce the risk of injury. Laminated glass includes a protective interlayer that holds fragments together even when cracked. Glass balustrades are also structurally supported with high-quality fittings and posts, often made from stainless steel or powder-coated aluminium, to ensure safety and durability. When installed by professionals, glass balustrades offer a secure and stylish option for residential and commercial properties.



  • Can I customise the design of a balustrade?

    Yes, balustrades can be customised in many ways to suit both functional and aesthetic preferences. You can choose from a range of materials such as aluminium, glass, or stainless steel, and customise elements like rail design, panel style, and colour finishes. Aluminium balustrades can be powder-coated in various colours to match or contrast with your exterior. Glass options include frameless, semi-frameless, or fully framed panels, with choices for clear, tinted, or frosted finishes. Handrail styles, post shapes, and decorative infill panels can also be tailored to the architectural style of your home or building. Custom fabrication ensures the balustrade fits your space precisely, whether it's a narrow staircase, wide balcony, or multi-level deck.
