For complete and attractive coverage of a residential balcony, we recommend using the Paredam Dampere Guardrail Kit, whether for apartment buildings or offices. The custom-made Monobloc railing module offers intrinsic aesthetics. It consists of a complete covering of the concrete slab with decorative sheet metal to give thickness to the balcony and embellish the main facade. From the top to the bottom of the guardrail, the vertical connection is ensured by a continuous and progressive panel. The Paredam guardrail kit installed on the concrete slab features attractive decorative perforated sheet metal that completely covers the slab edge for a personalized look on your balcony. The sealed and clean effect of the slab adds character to the building's facade. The Paredam guardrail solves the problem of black streaks in front of the concrete slab, as well as ensuring the safety of children on apartment balconies.
