Aluminium vertical cable balustrade
Uninterrupted views, no glass to clean and cables that never need re-tensioning. Custom-made to your measurements and delivered as pre-assembled panels, ready to install.
Architecture first.
Engineered to last.
The sentrel vertical cable balustrade pairs proprietary aluminium extrusions with self-tensioning 316 marine-grade stainless steel cables. The result is a fine, almost invisible barrier that keeps the view, the breeze and the clean lines of the architecture.
Frames are finished in Dulux Duratec powder coat for colour retention, scuff resistance and long life in coastal and harsh outdoor conditions. Unlike glass, there are no panels to clean, no fogging and no trapped heat.
Compliant. Safe. Durable.

A balustrade is only as strong as what it’s fixed to
- Confirm timber decks and balconies are structurally adequate before installation
- Check for poorly laid tiles or unstable substrates at fixing points
- Locate electrical cables and plumbing before drilling, to avoid energising metal components
Installations to substrates or structures outside our documented fixing solutions may need project-specific engineering assessment. Our team is happy to talk through your site.
