PRESSURE LOCKED GRATINGS Pressure locked gratings are constructed entirely from flat bars by pressing an arrangement of cross bars into notched bearing bars. The bars are further secured by a choice of flat or C-shaped edging bar, producing a custom-sized grating panel with perfectly formed intersections. This manufacturing method is extremely adaptable and the production process can promptly provide grating panels in custom sizes and to non-standard specifications of weight, aperture and performance. In spite of the high quality and pleasing aesthetic of the product, it is surprisingly economical...

TYPE-PL PRESSURE-LOCKED PRESSED TYPE-PLX PRESSURE-LOCKED CROSS-PRESSED TYPE-PLXE PRESSURE-LOCKED CROSS-PRESSED EQUAL BARS The bearing bars of a PL single pressed grating are notched before the transverse bar is inserted under pressure. The panel is then framed on all four sides with either a flat bar or a C-section bar. The PLX cross-pressed grating is made with bars of an unequal depth, both of which are notched to produce a very secure joint. This provides greater strength under stress for locations such as the turning point of a heavy vehicle. The PLXE cross-pressed grating is made from bars...

ELECTROFUSED GRATINGS Manufacturing Process: high voltage electricity combined with pressure totally amalgamates the flat bearing bars with the transverse bars without using any unsightly welding material. The fusion of each intersection produces a material which has complete integrity, thus allowing it to be cut or shaped without compromising its overall strength. Mats are generally 6100mm long and 1000mm wide The manufacturing production lines, as well as cutting and framing processes, are all fully automated for quality control and maximum cost-efficiency. All panels are supplied framed and...

URBAN PEDESTRIAN GRATING - BARROT A totally new concept in the design of steel grating for pedestrian areas which will also accept a standard car loading up to a maximum span of 367mm. The exceptional characteristic of the Barrot grating is achieved by incorporating bearing bars which are shaped to a reversed U-profile providing a broad surface area which is comfortable for walking on. This can be particularly relevant for applications such as domestic balconies where traditional gratings are painful to bare feet. The innovative design also includes a unique dimpled surface which provides anti-slip...

ANTI-VERTIGO GRATING -100% VISUAL SCREENING The Anti-Vertigo system has been designed for suspended stairs and flooring where height might cause problems of privacy or dizziness. The principal feature of the grating is that the bearing bar is shaped so that transparency is obstructed from any viewing angle while retaining an open area between the bars for ventilation, drainage and the prevention of ice formation. The product is available either as a stair tread or as a flooring plank with framing bars which are shaped to slide together without any lateral fixing. A landing or platform is composed...
