Our Steel Handrail Products

Handrails are necessary safety features to prevent slips, trips and falls.  The main choice when you are considering adding a handrail to your premises is the material that you use; from aluminium, to wood, glass and steel. 

Orrcon Steel specialises in producing steel handrails made from mild steel.  Using high quality steel is the key to ensuring the long life of a handrail.  Orrcon Steel stocks a range of quality mild steel handrail products, including:

  • Stanchions:  All steel handrail systems in Australia need to be able to withstand a certain amount of horizontal force. Stanchions play a critical part in providing this force and protecting people from falling off the edge of a walkway.
  • Bends: Orrcon produces steel handrail systems that are strong and cost-effective for both commercial and industrial applications.  Our product range features a variety of handrail bends.
  • Kick Plates: Kick plates are placed at the bottom of industrial handrails near your toes.  While not always necessary, the reason to install a handrail system to begin with is for safety prevention from accidents and hazardous trips and falls; kick plates are also installed to increase safety, the same purpose as the safety hand railing system itself.
  • Mounting Brackets: Handrail mounting brackets are essential for securing the handrail to a fixed wall.  Our brackets are produced with high quality steel to ensure they are durable, strong and well made.

 

There are many benefits to using our mild steel handrail products, such as:

  • Durability: Handrails are vital for safety, so it’s important to use a durable and strong material.  Mild steel is stronger than other materials such as wood as it has high tensile strength and the handrails will not warp, crumble, fracture or bend over time.
  • Maintenance: Mild steel is easy to maintain and clean, which is why it is one of the main materials of choice for today’s construction industry.
  • Cost Effective: Mild steel handrails are extremely affordable and building owners can save money in the long run as this type of railing requires no periodic finishing. Even if it is outdoors and exposed to extreme weather conditions like snow, rain or heat, mild steel handrails will retain their appearance.

 

Our Expertise

Steel is often the material of choice for railing systems as it has superior strength and toughness compared to other materials such as aluminium.  As it is tougher, steel is less prone to surface scratches and dents, which means that it is easier to clean and maintain.  Furthermore, steel handrails require less supports, so there is more design freedom with steel railings.

Steel is undeniably the optimum material for railing systems, however there are dramatic differences between the various types of steel that you can use. At Orrcon steel, we manufacture handrails from quality, Australian made mild steel ensuring the products that we supply adhere to the Australian safety standards.
