BARR BALUSTRADE SYSTEM
1. Seamless Design Integration
BARR’s horizontal top and bottom rails pass effortlessly through precision-machined openings in the balusters, creating a sleek, uninterrupted look with enhanced structural integrity.
2. Built to Last
Crafted from premium aluminium, BARR delivers superior durability while maintaining a refined, contemporary aesthetic.
3. Open & Spacious Feel
With a slim 50x25mm vertical baluster profile, BARR enhances the sense of space while providing robust safety and support. Fully welded panels arrive ready for installation with discreet slimline brackets.
4. Easy Installation
Designed for versatility, BARR can be installed using core-drilled, deck-mounted, or face-mounted posts, making it suitable for a variety of settings. You can install as both horizontal and raked (stairs) applications.
Installation for this system is typically much quicker than others as the panels are provided pre-welded and powder coated. Simply install your posts at required intervals, trim the panels to size (if required) and install between posts using the supplied brackets. For stairs it's the same process and the raked welded panels can be adjusted onsite to suit your rake angle of between 32-38°. It's that easy!
5. Low Maintenance, High Performance
Engineered for the Australian climate, BARR’s corrosion-resistant aluminium requires minimal upkeep while retaining its strength and visual appeal over time.
6. Installing On Stairs / Raked Sections (1000mmH only)
The BARR system can be easily installed on any raked sections, such as stairs. The 1380mm wide welded panels can be adjusted onsite to suit raked angles of between 32 and 38°.

10. Simple Pricing and Ordering
Three Step Ordering
- CALCULATE YOUR TOTAL LENGTH
- ADD THAT QUANTITY TO YOUR CART AND PLACE YOUR ORDER
- EMAIL US YOUR PLANS
It's that easy!
All our balustrades are priced per metre and include everything required to complete your install (excluding post-to-ground fixings, these can be supplied separately to suit your installation: timber or masonry)
To order, simply calculate the total metres required for your project and add that quantity to your cart (round up to the nearest metre). Include the raked length of stairs by measuring along the angle of your stairs, top to bottom. Most stairs are close to 36° angle so you can use this handy guide to calculate the length based on either the rise or run if you can't measure the raked length:
💡 Quick Reference
Rise ÷ 0.5878 = raked length
Or/
Run ÷ 0.8090 = raked length
Your Plans
After placing your order, a team member will contact you to confirm the exact quantities of individual components based on your balustrade plans. To speed things up, send us a copy of any plans you have or even a sketch will help.
Regardless of your particular installation, the per-metre cost remains the same, ensuring transparent and straightforward pricing. It really is that easy!
Minimum Order: Please note there is a minimum order quantity of 4m. Orders of less than this will not be processed.
