QuestionsFrequently asked
Are cable railings safe for children?
Yes, with the right gap and pretension. Many codes use a 100 mm sphere test; for small children we often recommend Webnet infill.
What is an invisible grill?
A row of thin stainless cables in tracks on a balcony or window. It keeps people safe without blocking the view.
