Kesterton Linkway Stainless Steel Balustrades
A modular stainless steel balustrade installation combining durability, transport efficiency, and architectural detailing for a key pedestrian linkway in Sydney.
Project Overview
Category: Balustrades, Commercial
Location: Neutral Bay, Sydney
Project Description: Southern Stainless was engaged to supply and install approximately 150 metres of stainless steel balustrade for the Kesterton Linkway in Neutral Bay, Sydney.
To streamline logistics and installation, the balustrade system was fabricated in modular sections, allowing for efficient transport and assembly onsite. The design incorporated a combination of flat and round stainless steel handrail elements, complemented by FRP (fibreglass reinforced panels) used as an architectural feature.
All stainless steel components were manufactured from high quality 316 marine grade material and fully electropolished after fabrication, ensuring a smooth, durable finish with enhanced corrosion resistance suitable for long-term outdoor exposure.
Our Role
- Fabrication of modular stainless steel balustrade systems
- Supply and installation of approximately 150m of balustrade
- Integration of architectural FRP infill panels
- Electropolishing of all stainless steel components
- Onsite assembly and installation in a public access environment
Key Features
- Approx. 150 linear metres of balustrade
- Fabricated in modular sections for efficient transport and installation
- Combination of flat and round stainless steel handrail elements
- FRP (fibreglass reinforced panels) used as architectural infill
- Constructed from 316 marine grade stainless steel
- Fully electropolished for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance
- Designed for public infrastructure and pedestrian use
Applications
This type of balustrade system is ideal for:
- Pedestrian linkways and walkways
- Public infrastructure projects
- Urban and council developments
- Architectural balustrade systems
- Projects requiring modular fabrication and efficient installation
Project Outcome
The completed balustrade system provides a durable, low-maintenance solution that enhances safety while incorporating architectural elements for visual interest. The modular approach allowed for efficient delivery and installation without compromising quality or performance.
