Laidlaw 80 Page Handrail and Balustrade Solutions Brochure
At 80 pages, Laidlaw Solutions’ 2009 Handrail and Balustrade Solutions brochure provides an invaluable guide to handrail and balustrade specification and design. It includes detailed information on stainless steel, nylon, timber and combination systems as well as uprights, infills and structural glazing. Guidance on key aspects of installation such as spacing and loading is also provided in relation to Approved Doc Parts M, K (England and Wales), R (Northern Ireland) and Non-Domestic Technical Handbook Section 4 – safety (Scotland). Coverage of Building Regulations and Standards includes specific reference to the newly updated BS8300 in respect of grip, dimensions, spacing, LRVs and visual impairment.
Diverse case studies for all key sectors illustrate how use of Laidlaw systems fulfils aesthetic as well as functional design requirements, utilising component based, rather than site fabricated systems. As market leader in the supply of doorsets and architectural ironmongery, Laidlaw, which is now Chas accredited, offers six handrail and balustrading systems:
- Nylon – using nylon-sleeved galvanised steel components
Stainless steel – using stainless steel components
- Timber – using four basic types of timber in conjunction with either nylon-sleeved galvanised steel or stainless steel components
- Combi – using a combination of nylon-sleeved galvanised steel and stainless steel components
- 3kN – using larger diameter stainless steel uprights to resist the greater loadings required for certain environments
- Modu-line –an on-site, easy assembly component system
Specification clauses are available via NBS Plus or from the company’s Handrail department which can supply detailed technical support and guidance.
