Leaf Scroll Framed Panel 270 x 1000mm, 14 x 8mm Flat Bar, Gate and Balustrade Infill

A tall framed panel in flat bar, for balustrades and gates. Two long side bars make a slim frame 270mm wide, and a plain 90mm bar stands out on the centre line at each end to weld. Each end of the frame finishes in curled C scrolls and a leaf spray bound by a collar, and two slim spear-shaped leaves point towards each other in the middle. The 14 x 8mm section gives it more weight than a 12mm baluster, so it holds its own as the feature in a run of plain bars. It is supplied in raw steel, ready to weld and finish, and the price shown is for one panel.

Why fabricators use it

A complete feature in one piece. The frame, scrolls and leaves arrive already assembled, so all you weld are the two plain ends. On a gate that means one tall feature panel without any scroll forming in the workshop.

Plain ends on the centre line. The 90mm ends sit in the middle of the frame, so the panel welds to your top and bottom rails like a baluster and hangs true without extra brackets.

Flat bar reads crisply. Flat bar has clean edges that show clearly after painting, and the deep frame gives a stronger shadow line than a single bar.

Takes any finish. Raw mild steel can be painted, powder coated or hot-dip galvanised after welding.

Where it is used

Balustrades on landings and galleries, garden and side gates, driveway gate infill, screens and internal room dividers, spaced singly among plain bars or in matched pairs either side of a centre line.

Specifications

Spacing it in a run

At 270mm wide the panel takes up the space of about two and a half plain bars at 110mm centres. Allow a clear gap each side that matches your bar spacing. On a 1 metre gate, one panel centred or two panels evenly spaced both look right. On a 3 metre railing, three to four panels with plain bars between is a good starting point.

Stairs, landings and balconies in homes: no gap may let a 100mm sphere pass. The openings inside this frame are large, so check them with a 100mm gauge before using it for domestic guarding, or infill behind it.

• 250 x 980mm fleur arch baluster panel, 16 x 10mm flat bar with fleur-de-lis
• 170 x 750mm fleur-de-lis framed panel, a smaller framed design
• 500 x 1000mm framed scroll panel, for wider openings

Fitting and care

Check the clear height between your rails. The plain ends are 90mm, so you can trim a little from each end to fit and still have bar to weld; keep the cut equal so the frame stays centred. Tack the bottom end, set the panel plumb, tack the top, then weld out and grind flush. Raw steel will rust if left bare, so finish it promptly. Outdoors, have it hot-dip galvanised, or degrease, prime with a zinc-rich or etch primer and top coat with metal paint, working the paint into every scroll and leaf. Indoors, a good metal primer and a paint or wax finish is enough.
