    Installation:

    Threaded rod into concrete:

    Threaded rod will require you to drill an appropriate hole into concrete to accommodate your 6 mm diameter rod. The diameter of your hole can be slightly bigger than the rod itself so that you can insert correct amount of epoxy into the hole. You can insert rod 70 mm to 80 mm hole and leave 20 mm - 30 mm exposed for the sockets to tension onto.

    Dual Thread Screw into wood:

    This Dual Thread Screw will require you to drill a small pilot hole into your wooden posts. Rule of thumb: A smaller pilot hole for soft wood and a bigger pilot hole for very hard wood.

    This Dual Thread Screw is only suitable to use with Left hand threaded Swage sockets that can take a 4 mm cable. The Dual Thread Screw will go into you post to a depth of 40 mm deep and the steel thread remains exposed for the female swage socket to be turned onto the thread of the screw.

    We are a Proudly South African company and therefore most of our balustrade  fittings are locally manufactured by us here in Cape Town out of the highest Grade of 316 Stainless Steel available.

      Our Balustrade cables are suitable to be used on interior staircases, balustrades and lofts. Cables are also extremely popular outside on balustrade decks, balconies, walkways, staircases, Pergolas & Juliet balconies.

      The steel fittings are suitable to be used in conjunction with a range of natural woods like, Balau, Garapa, Rhodesian Teak, Saligna and Pine wooden decking.

      Synthetic decking and composite wood decking products are also very popular and are sometimes preferred over natural wood. This is due to requiring less maintenance and due to engineered wood products are resistant to rotting, splintering and warping.

       

      Fittings & cable: Made of superior Grade 316 Stainless Steel.

      Recomendation: order fittings and cable once posts and handrail are installed. Shipping can take 2-3 working days. Tool hire not charged for over weekends. Tool to be returned via courier or dropped off at our offices after project completed. Items can be returned for a refund.

      Length: 30mm

      Use the tool on a level surface and in a safe open area away from moving machinery. Use tool on the ground and keep tool in upright position whilst in use. Tool instructions available. Ensure no welding or grinding is done near your cables. Ensure cutting of cable is done away from the balustrade. We recomend the use of a grinder with a slimline cuttting disk suitable for cutting metal and steel. Buy cutting disk that is the correct size for your grinder.

      Ruark assisted me and his speedy service allowed me to get my order within 24h from Cape Town to Pretoria. This was for a job that had to be expedited and Ruark made that possible, and he saved me R300 on shipping cost. Thanks! Oh and their store prices are the best I seen yet.

      From site visit to construction these guys were professionals - clear about what could be done and how it would look best aesthetically. We are very pleased with the strong steel wires and fittings which will look great and also function well against the strong cape town winds.

      Ruark helped me out with installing safety lines in our apartment windows on relatively short notice. Gabriel and Brian did a superb job. As a mechanical engineer it’s easy for me to tell who takes care and who just wants to get a job done - these guys had the right tools and expertise for the task at hand.
