balustrades
Balustrades and handrails — code-compliant, beautifully finished.
Frameless glass, aluminium, stainless wire and Hamptons-style balustrades — designed, fabricated and installed to AS 1170 and AS 1288.
Balustrades have to do two things — meet the code and look great. BC Complete designs and installs balustrades and stair handrails across Wollongong, the Illawarra, Macarthur and the Southern Highlands, fully compliant with AS 1170 (loadings) and AS 1288 (glass).
We work in frameless and semi-frameless glass, powder-coated aluminium, stainless wire and timber Hamptons-style. Every system is matched to your deck, pool surround or stairs for a finish that looks intentional rather than tacked on.

questions, answered
Balustrades — FAQs
Do balustrades need to meet a code?
Yes — any balustrade over 1m above the ground (or 4m for some structures) must meet AS 1170 for loadings and, if glass, AS 1288. We design and install every balustrade fully compliant and certified.
Frameless vs semi-frameless glass — what's the difference?
Frameless uses spigots or a channel to hold the glass with no posts — maximum view. Semi-frameless uses thin posts every 1.2–2m, which is more cost-effective and still very clean. Both use toughened safety glass.
Can you do pool fencing?
Yes — we install AS 1926-compliant pool fencing in frameless glass or powder-coated aluminium, including self-closing pool gates and certification on completion.
Will the balustrade match my existing deck or stairs?
Yes — we measure on site and match fixings, colours and profiles to your existing build. For new decks and stairs we design the balustrade in from the start so it looks like part of the original design.
