Modular handrails, balustrades and barrier systems: Dispelling the myths and misconceptions

The use of modular building products has gained and continues to gain significant traction as a preferred method of increasing efficiency on construction projects. While modular has proven itself as a faster, more versatile and high-quality building option, architects, designers and specifiers may be hesitant to specify modular handrail systems due to misconceptions about their strength, versatility and quality. The truth is the leading products in this category are not only manufactured to a high standard, but they also offer time-saving and cost benefits across an entire building project.

Modular Handrails, Balustrades and Barrier Systems: Dispelling the Myths and Misconceptions breaks down the key benefits of using modular handrails, balustrades and barrier systems and dispels the myths and misconceptions around their strength, design flexibility and ability to meet strict compliance standards. We also compare modular systems to traditional welded railing systems, highlighting why the former may be the better option to reduce budget and scheduling risks.

Moddex are Australasia’s leading manufacturer of modular, no-weld barrier systems. Pre-engineered for structural integrity, their proprietary systems are load tested and configured to Australian and New Zealand Standards (AS/NZS), Workplace Health and Safety guidelines (WHS/OSH), Australia’s National Construction Code (NCC/BCA) and the New Zealand Building Code (NZBC).
