The complete system range

Twelve guard and divider systems. Use the finder to narrow them down by the things that actually change a specification: mounting, infill, fabrication and application.

Nothing matches every condition you've selected.

Take one filter off, or send us the condition. Most projects outside the standard range get a project-specific engineered variant.

By family

Grouped by fabrication method

RM-EDGE™

Shop-welded aluminum guard systems with laminated safety glass infill. The welded frame makes each panel rigid and continuous, and panels arrive prefabricated for a fast, consistent install. The EDGE range runs from standard top- and face-mounted assemblies to adjustable and slim-post versions.

When to specify: The workhorse glass range. Choose EDGE when you want a welded frame and a clean glass elevation.

4 systems

RM-PRO™

Structural guards built entirely from 6061-T6 aluminum and bolted together with precision-machined connections rather than welded. With no weld heat-affected zones the alloy keeps its full strength, and the anchorage is concealed. Made for heavy loading, difficult façade interfaces and high-traffic buildings.

When to specify: The premium structural range. Choose PRO for high-load conditions, demanding façade interfaces, or wherever full 6061-T6 capacity is needed.

4 systems

RM-JULIET™

Face-mounted aluminum guards for window openings, French doors and Juliet balconies, where there is no floor behind the guard. Slim profiles sit cleanly against curtain wall and window systems while meeting guard load and spacing requirements.

When to specify: The opening-protection range. Choose JULIET where a guard is needed at a door or window but there is no balcony slab.

Plain terms

What the words mean

The catalogue is written for specifiers. If you are reading it as an owner or a builder, these are the terms that do most of the work.

Guard
The code term for the barrier itself. A railing stops people falling from a balcony, terrace or stair; the Ontario Building Code calls it a guard and sets the loads it must carry.
Infill
Whatever fills the space between the posts, either glass panels or vertical pickets. It is the single biggest decision for how a balcony looks.
Top-mounted
The guard sits on the top surface of the concrete slab and bolts down through it. The simplest and most common way to attach it.
Face-mounted
The guard bolts to the vertical edge of the slab instead of its top. You keep the full width of the balcony, and no bolts pass through the floor you walk on.
Picket
A vertical aluminum bar. Pickets are spaced so a 100 mm sphere cannot pass between them, which is the code test that stops a child slipping through.
Laminated glass
Two sheets of glass bonded to a clear interlayer. If it breaks, the interlayer holds the pieces in place rather than letting them fall.
Anchorage
How the guard transfers load into the building. Expansion anchors set into the concrete to a specified depth, engineered for the loads that particular project imposes.
6061-T6
The aluminum alloy and temper used for the structural parts. High strength, corrosion resistant, and it will not rust the way a steel railing does.
Shop-welded
Panels welded in the factory under controlled conditions and delivered ready to install. Nothing structural is welded on site.
AAMA 2603 / 2604 / 2605
The three grades of architectural paint finish, from general exposure up to high-rise and waterfront. A higher number means the color and gloss hold longer.
