Description
A crisp, pointed-frame baluster for gates, railings and balconies. This panel is 1000mm long in 12mm square mild steel bar. Its 600mm centre is an open frame 100mm wide with straight sides and curved, pointed ends, like a long lancet window, and a 200mm plain bar runs from each point. Used on every bar it gives a strong, modern rhythm; alternated with plain bars it reads lighter and more traditional. It comes in raw steel, ready to cut, weld and finish. The price shown is for one panel; it used to be sold only as a pack of 2.

Why fabricators use it
Made up and ready to weld. The frame and its pointed ends are already formed and joined, so every panel in a run is identical and lines up.
Plain ends for an easy fit. Each end has 200mm of straight 12mm square bar to trim for lower railings while keeping the frame central.
Same bar as your plain balusters. Standard 12mm square, so it lines up with plain 12mm bars and welds to the same rails.
Proven in driveway gates. The pointed frame works especially well across a pair of gates, as the galvanised gate photo shows.
Where it is used
Driveway and garden gates, front garden railings, Juliet and full balconies, stair and landing balustrades, boundary railings on dwarf walls and decorative screens.

Choosing the right panel
All of these are 1000 x 100mm in 12mm square bar with plain ends, so they mix and match in the same railing:
| Frame shape | Panel |
|---|---|
| Pointed lancet ends | This panel |
| Straight sided rectangle | Rectangle panel |
| Arched ends, square shoulders | Arched frame panel |
| Arched ends with crossing scrolls | Arched scroll panel |
| Pointed almond, split bar | Split bar panel |
| Long rounded oval | Rounded oval panel |

Fitting and care
Measure the clear height between your rails and cut an equal amount off each plain end so the frames stay level. Square the ends, tack each panel to the bottom rail, set it 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. Check paintwork each spring and touch up chips.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one panel?
Yes. The price is now for a single panel, not a pack. For a full gate set or railing, call us and we will price the quantity.
Can I cut it shorter?
Yes. Trim the plain 200mm ends equally. With both trimmed fully it fits a clear height of about 600mm, but leave some plain bar to weld to.
Can it be galvanised?
Yes. It is plain mild steel, so it galvanises well after welding into a gate or railing, as in the driveway gate photo.
Is it the same both sides?
Yes. Square bar all round, so it looks the same from front and back and either way up.
