"Fusion Commercial outdoor balustrade is strength tested to 1.5kN/m, in line with the requirements of British Standards, making it suitable for use on high level decks and domestic balconies".
"The system combines hardwood rails and glass panels with metal newels and connectors for a contemporary finish and is also available with hardwood timber balusters or hardwood slatted panels".
David Richards, Specification Product Manager for Richard Burbidge, comments: "Fusion Commercial's contemporary styling makes a lasting impression, so it really complements a modern development such as Riverside Village".
"Clarence House has very quickly built an impressive reputation on the Riverside Village scheme, as a provider of high quality homes with a real emphasis on attention to detail".
"It is testament to the quality of Fusion Commercial that the range has been specified for such an exclusive housing development".
Each of the three Fusion Commercial outdoor balustrade systems is structurally sound, thanks to a range of bracket fixings and a specially designed newel post support bar, which add significant strength.
The glass panels are available in two sizes for greater flexibility and an accurate finish.
Each panel has bevelled edges for neatness and safety, and is manufactured from toughened Float glass, perfect for outdoor applications.
