Architectural Rigging

Services

Architectural Rigging may be described as rigging that is in place to create an effect rather than to have a structural purpose. Four and Five milimeter diameter wire infill to balustrading is now widely used as an alternative to painted mild steel or wood. Slightly higher initial costs are quickly recoverd by the absens of a need for maintenance.

The following are examples of our balustrading work in private houses, shops, bridges and public buildings.
