Description

Where would you normally use a 50x50mm square plain post?
As a post to structurally support a horizontal or angled wire cable balustrade on a deck, balcony or staircase.
The plain post is the perfect solution for angled balustrades on stairs. Given that stairs are at different angles, the plain post allows the installer to cut the post to the correct height and then either drill it both sides if it is an intermediate post or drill and insert rivet nuts if it is being used as an end post.
On a wire balustrade, you need to have a support post approximately every 1.5 metres (when using 3.2mm wire cable).

Which fixings go with this post?
Any of the square rail supports in a satin. If you are looking to use this post on a staircase, then you will need to choose one of the adjustable rail supports.

What is it made out of?
316 Stainless Steel in a satin/brushed Finish.

How should you fasten it to the ground/deck?
Due to the large number of surfaces that the post could be fixed to, we do not supply any fasteners.
We suggest that you speak to a local hardware store for more info.

*** IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ ***

These posts are specially made when an order is placed. Unless the post is defective in some way, NO REFUNDS will be given if you have ordered the wrong post or you decide to change your mind and want to return it.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Without regular cleaning and maintenance discolouration of the surface of the stainless steel by corrosion (tea staining) can occur.

How to reduce the risk of tea staining

  • Absence of corrosives – especially salt, chlorine, cleaning acids etc.
  • Atmospheric Conditions – lower temperatures and low humidity are better.
  • Surface orientation – Open exposure to rain washing is better
  • Surface Finish – In general a smoother finish is better. where practical mirror polish finish may perform better than a brushed finish.
  • Chemical cleanliness or passivation of the surface improves corrosion resistance
  • Appropriate grade selection for conditions
  • Regular Maintenance to limit the accumulation of corrosives
