Taskers

Wire Balustrades

Taskers create the best wire balustrading in Perth. We can tailor our wire balustrading to any length or thickness, and we offer a huge variety of joins and attachments.

The first four turnbuckle/fork combinations are attached to the inside of the balustrade posts. The measurements required for these options are the inside distance between the wire handrailing posts. End attachments are required for these to secure the balustrade wire and fittings to the posts.

The last few combinations (Balustrade 5 & 6) do not require end wire attachments since they pass through the balustrades' end post. The measurements required for this option is the outside of the posts.

Balustrade 1

Closed Body Turnbuckle + Swage Fork: Due to it's elegant look and inexpensive cost, this is one of the most popular combinations for wire balustrades.

End Attachments

Note: When connecting to a wall, you can either chemically anchor the eyebolts into the bricks, or you can anchor a plate or post, with saddles attached, to the wall.

Attachment 1

Stainless Steel Coach Screw Eyes: Required for timber posts.

Attachment 2

Stainless Steel Saddles: For use with steel balustrade posts. These are attached with rivets or you can tap a thread into the post and use a 3/16" or 5mm stainless steel machine screw.

Cheaper Option

Note that if you need a cheaper wire handrail option, we can supply wire with copper ferrules and a swaging tool.
