Excuse me, what is the material of the guardrail on the balcony at home? What are the installation steps?

Balcony guardrails are generally made of iron, steel and aluminum alloy. Let's take a look at how Bianxiao Life installed the guardrail.

Installation steps of balcony guardrail First, you must determine what height your guardrail chooses. The clear height of railings in low-rise residential buildings should not be less than 1.05m, and the clear height of railings in middle and high-rise buildings should not be less than 1. 10m. After determining the installation standard, you must start to choose the appropriate type.

Remove rust in time. In the horizontal direction, ensure the consistency of the same floor, so as to ensure the consistency of appearance.

Balcony railings must be painted after installation. The thickness of the paint must be consistent. The inside and above must be painted with water.

It is also important that the connection with the external wall should be smooth.

Guardrail material: iron fence: this is a very common one in decoration. Whether it is European court style or other styles, the overall collocation is very good, but its shortcomings can not be ignored. Because the balcony is rainy and windy every day, the paint on the iron surface is easy to fall off. Iron also rusts and rots easily. With the development of more and more fashion types, the use of this kind of wrought iron is gradually decreasing.

Steel wire guardrail: The characteristic of this guardrail is to establish the connection between the upright post and the added iron post, but the existence of this steel wire will make some naughty children climb up, which is even more dangerous, so most of it is not used for home decoration.
