Top Mount Pool Fence

30/09/2013 •

The X1-Series Top Fixed Balustrade/Pool Fence system is designed to fix to the floor of the balcony, landing or stair structure, whether it be the concrete slab or lightweight framing.

Where fixing into timber floor framing, both fixings to each stanchion need to be into the same joist, or nogging which has a rigid connection between joists.

This balustrade system is suitable for use on; houses, residential buildings and offices with the T4650 top fix stanchion and is particularly suitable for pool fencing fixing down onto a timber deck.

This system is suitable for use on pool fences or any balustrade not protecting a fall greater than 1m. An interlinking handrail is required for all balustrades protecting a fall greater than 1m
