Laidlaw Handrail & Balustrade Solutions

As the market leader, Laidlaw can provide you with handrail and balustrade solutions that comply with all necessary Building Regulation requirements and British Standard recommendations for structural stability, safety and accessibility.

Laidlaw offer five handrail and balustrade systems:

Nylon - The Laidlaw Nylon range is designed to bring together the structural strength and non-corrosive nature of a galvanised steel core with the pleasant feel and permanent colour of a thick nylon sleeve. It is one of the most effective ways of complying with all aspects of the guidance in Approved Document M (2004).

Stainless Steel - The Laidlaw Stainless Steel handrail and balustrade system achieves the cool, sleek look often favoured in the design of modern buildings. This aesthetically pleasing and superbly engineered failing system is often used to complement the stainless steel finish of other elements of the building, eg, lighting and architectural hardware.

Timber - The Laidlaw Timber handrail and balustrade system provides the specifier with the ideal blend of traditional and modern styles. It combines the modern lines of stainless steel or nylon uprights, bends and brackets with the gentle warmth and natural feel of a timber rail which is not cold to the touch.

Combi - The Laidlaw Combi handrail and balustrade system provides the specifier with a wide range of compbinations of stainless steel and nylon components. Components can be predominantly stainless steel where its aesthetic qualities are required or mainly nylon where colour is preferred. Nylon rails can be used externally to ensure that they are not cold to the touch.

3kN - Developed in direct response to the needs of our customers, the Laidlaw 3kN handrail and balustrade system is quick to install yet meets the enhanced loading requirements of BS 6399-1 for use in assembly areas, eg, retail environments, which could be subject to overcrowding. Components are mainly of stainless steel, with nylon-sleeved steel an alternative for handrails and the top rails of balustrades where they need to be not cold to touch.

Balustrade Infill
Laidlaw offers a wide range of balustrade infill, including stainless steel wire, tubular mid rails or infill panels, to suit every need. The selection of the most appropriate infill will depend on the visual effect required and on the type of building. All infill options comply with the horizontal U.D. and point load requirements of BS 6399-1.

Structural Glass
Laidlaw's structural glass balustrade system is based on the concept of a free-standing balustrade, which does not require separate uprights and infill panels. There are no gaps through which a child could squeeze, nor can it be easily climbed.

Non-standard Options
As well as the standard components of the five handrail and balustrade systems, Laidlaw offer a number of options for clients and specifiers with specific requirements for rail materials and/or infill panels. For details and prices of all the non-standard options, please contact Laidlaw.

A Complete Supply & Fit Service
Laidlaw offers a complete supply and fit service, from producing quotations from architects' drawings or bills of quantities to on-site measurements, production drawings for customer approval, manufacture and on-site installation. Whatever the project, whether a hospital, school or bank, Laidlaw's Technical Advisory Service is available to advise on all requirements of handrail and balustrade systems.

Guidance on Regulations & Legislation
Laidlaw trained staff can also offer guidance on all relevant Building Regulations and legislation, including Approved Document M, BS 8300 and the Disability Discrimination Act. In particular, recommendations can be made on colour contrast, materials that are not cold to the touch and the key accessibility features of handrails and balustrades.

A Factory-assembled Component-based System
Laidlaw are committed to a component-based system, which has a number of fundamental advantages:

  • Having a stock of key components ensures delivery, and the fact that the majority of the assembly is carried out in the factory enables speedy installation once on site

  • The finished product is aesthetically superior to one that is made up on site because there are no unsightly welds, no sharp edges or angles, no deformation of bends and no grinding is necessary

  • A consistent finish is obtained within an individual installation and the same appearance is guaranteed in projects throughout the UK

  • The top rail and infill panels are demountable, making it easy  to repair the balustrade without damaging the surroundings

  • The installation is sustainable as, at the end of the life of the building, all components are recyclable.
