Balustrade
specialist Q-railing has engineered a brand-new aluminium railing: Easy Alu.
The
high-grade system has a modern look and is available with various finishes and
custom options.
You get to
choose from 3 different ordering packages, including one that provides entirely
custom-made and preassembled railing modules, which you only need to anchor on
site.
The Easy
Alu aluminium parts are available with a brushed anodised finish, mill finish
or powder-coating in any RAL colour. For the infill, there are 2 different
glass options. All parts can be conveniently assembled into ready-to-install
modules before they are even at the project site. It is up to you whether you
arrange the preassembly yourself or let Q-railing do it for you. Either way,
you will find it easy to work within tight time slots for the final
installation, because all that is left to do is anchor the modules to the floor
and click the handrails on top.
According
to Product Manager Jeffrey Meijer, Easy Alu isn't your average aluminium
railing: 'We know that aluminium railings aren't new to the market. People are
familiar with benefits such as attractive pricing and the low weight of
components, but we wanted to offer something more – something better. We
created a great-looking, safe and easy-to-install system and made sure that
installers can buy it in precisely the form they need it.'
Here,
Meijer is referring to Easy Alu's 3 ordering options:
1. Ready-to-install modules
You give
Q-railing your project requirements and they then supply you with custom-made,
ready-to-install Easy Alu modules. Q-railing does all the necessary
prefabrication for you, plus the entire preassembly. All you need to do then is
anchor the modules and put the handrails on.
2. Prefabricated single components
You give
Q-railing your product requirements so that they can do the cutting, drilling
and other product prefabrication, such as powder-coating, for you. All the
components you require will be delivered exactly as requested. You then
preassemble the components into ready modules and anchor the modules on site.
3. Standard single components
If you wish
to order directly from stock, you have the option of using products in standard
sizes and with standard finishes. You will then carry out any prefabrication of
components, followed by the preassembly and final installation of modules.
When
Q-railing supplies Easy Alu, it also provides the innovative Glass Wing
product. To make the installer’s life easier, this special glass rubber
initially stays open after it has been positioned. This means you can insert
the glass infill without any hassle, putting hardly any pressure on it. Only
when the glass infill has been inserted does the rubber close tightly around
the glass, providing an ultra-safe result.
Because
floors are hardly ever perfectly even, Q-railing includes a small levelling
block with each Easy Alu top-mount baluster flange. This eliminates the need
for shimming. You simply insert the levelling block under the flange and adjust
it with a hexagon-head screwdriver to align the module in relation to vertical.
