Staircases and Balustrades

Welcome to the Architectural Balustrades page at Shawton Engineering.

We specialise in designing and crafting balustrades from mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium.

Our options cater to a variety of styles and preferences. Whether you’re considering a modern aesthetic or a more traditional appearance, our experienced team is ready to assist you.

Our balustrades do more than just serve a practical purpose; they enhance the look and functionality of your space.

Mild steel is a robust material that offers great flexibility in design, making it ideal for various applications.

Stainless steel is known for its durability and sleek finish, which can elevate the overall feel of any contemporary environment.

Meanwhile, aluminium is lightweight and resistant to corrosion, making it a smart choice for both indoor and outdoor projects.

Understanding that every project is distinct, we take pride in our approach to custom design. Our team works closely with clients to create balustrades that meet their specific requirements and align with their vision.

From the early stages of planning through to installation, we strive to provide a straightforward and collaborative experience.

At Shawton Engineering, we focus on delivering quality craftsmanship while ensuring that your needs are met.

We invite you to explore the possibilities available for your architectural projects, and we look forward to supporting you in creating a balustrade that enhances your space.

    Comprehensive Staircase Solutions

    We offer a full range of services covering every aspect of staircase development, from initial concept and design to fabrication and installation. Our skilled engineers and craftspeople work closely with clients to understand their needs, ensuring a customised solution that perfectly complements each project’s architectural style and functional requirements.

    • Design Consultation: we begin with a thorough consultation to understand your vision, requirements and constraints. Our design then translates these insights into a concept that aligns with your aesthetic and functional goals.
    • Structural Analysis: ensuring the safety and stability of our staircases is paramount. Our structural engineers perform detailed analyses to guarantee that each design can withstand the expected loads and usage conditions.
    • Material Selection: Our experts will help you choose the best materials to match your design vision and performance needs.
    • Fabrication: We manufacture each staircase with precision and attention to detail, utilising state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques and equipment in our purpose-built fabrication facility. Our fabrication process ensures high-quality finishes and durable construction.
    • Installation: Our experienced installation team ensure that each staircase is installed safely and efficiently, adhering to all relevant building codes and standards.

    Innovative Designs

    We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver innovative staircase designs that meet functional needs and serve as stunning architectural features. We stay abreast of the latest design trends and technologies, incorporating these into our projects to offer cutting-edge solutions.

    • Helical Staircases: Known for their elegant spiral form, they provide a sophisticated focal point in any space. They require precise engineering and craftsmanship, which we have decades of experience in and excel at.
    • Cantilevered Staircases: Offering a minimalist and modern look, cantilevered staircases appear to float without visible supports. Our engineers ensure these designs are both beautiful and structurally sound.
    • Glass Staircases: Combining transparency and strength, glass staircases add a contemporary touch to any setting. We use high-quality, tempered glass to ensure safety and durability.
    • Traditional and Ornate Designs: We can create traditional staircases with ornate details and timeless appeal, which work well in older buildings.

    Every project is unique, and we believe in tailoring solutions that meet our clients’ specific needs. Our customisation options allow for flexibility in design, materials, and finishes.
