Balustrades in Doveton

Introducing a better way to finish your deck, balcony or stairs

If you’re weighing up balustrades in Doveton, you’re probably balancing safety, compliance and street appeal. We help homeowners and builders get all three - with engineered balustrades that suit Melbourne weather and everyday use.


Balustrades in Doveton

What you actually need from a balustrade

  • Safety that’s built in - robust materials, precise fabrication and tidy installs.

  • Compliance without the headache - we design to relevant standards and site conditions.

  • A clean look - lines that match your façade, flooring and handrails.

  • Low maintenance - smart material choices and quality finishes that last.


Styles we fabricate and install Balustrades in Doveton

Glass balustrades

Clean, modern and great for views. Choose framed, semi-frameless or pin-fixed designs. We prioritise edge protection, quality hardware and alignment so the result looks seamless end to end.


Flat-bar steel balustrades Doveton

Aluminium batten balustrades

A contemporary option with privacy and airflow. Batten spacing can be set to suit your project and compliance needs. Powder-coated finishes align with popular Colorbond-inspired colours for a cohesive exterior.


Flat-bar or rod steel balustrades

Strong, architectural and adaptable to stairs or landings. We fabricate in-house for crisp welds, consistent gaps and smooth handrail transitions.


Stainless wire balustrades

A lighter visual profile for decks and outdoor stairs. We tension correctly, specify the right post sections and finish with neat terminations.

Designed for Melbourne conditions

We plan for wind, water and wear. Posts, fixings and baseplates are sized for the job, drainage is considered at interfaces and coatings are selected for durability. Powder-coated aluminium and properly prepared steel stand up to sun and rain - and stay looking good.


Our process - simple, precise, reliable

  1. Measure & advice - we visit your Doveton site, confirm spans, heights and fixing points.

  2. Design & shop drawings - you see how it will look and connect before we cut metal.

  3. In-house fabrication - tighter tolerances, better welds, faster turnarounds.

  4. Finishing - quality powder-coat or brushed finishes matched to your palette.

  5. Installation & sign-off - neat, respectful and organised - we leave the site tidy.


For homeowners - a tidy upgrade that feels considered

  • Match your home - profiles and colours that work with your cladding, decking and handrails.

  • Safer edges - especially on raised decks and balconies.

  • Less maintenance - choose finishes that don’t demand constant attention.

  • Confidence - engineered solutions with clear communication from first call to handover.


Batten Balustrades in Doveton

For builders - a partner who understands site realities

  • Clear drawings that tradies can read and build against.

  • Consistent sections for quick install and repeatable results.

  • Reliable scheduling so installs align with scaffold drops and flooring timelines.

  • One team for measure, fabricate and fit - fewer moving parts, fewer delays.


Common decisions - made easier

  • Glass vs battens - glass opens views and light; battens add privacy and a modern rhythm.

  • Semi-frameless vs framed - semi-frameless is sleeker; framed can streamline installs on complex stairs.

  • Retrofitting - we assess existing substructures and propose fixings that protect waterproofing and finishes.

  • Handrail choices - timber, aluminium or steel rails - selected to complement your façade and feel good in hand.
