The Azay balustrade is a multi-functional architectural element made up of several parts. It mainly comprises a 59 cm high baluster, rails (top and bottom) and overmantels. We offer all complementary elements in the WESER range, which you can find in our technical data sheets.
Balustrade functions
When the balustrade is used to protect a height difference of less than one metre, its role is purely decorative. If, on the other hand, it protects a difference in height of over 1 m, it becomes a guardrail. In this case, it must comply with standards NF P 01-012 and NF P 01-013. Standard NF P 01-012 defines the height and spacing of balusters, while standard NF P 01-013 lays down stress resistance criteria. We have carried out static and dynamic tests on our balusters in accordance with these requirements. The GINGER CEBTP laboratory validated these tests in May 2024, and you can consult the results in report BEB1.N.5028-1.
Installation and durability
To help you with your project, we have drawn up the WESER installation guide. Our products are frost-resistant, and benefit from a mass staining and waterproofing treatment, ensuring excellent colorfastness. What’s more, Azay balustrades harmonize perfectly with the WESER range of slabs and coping stones.
