Gelcon Fabrications offers two popular materials: aluminium and glass.
Each suits different property styles and budgets, and both can be custom-made to order:
- Aluminium options are a practical choice for coastal environments like Bulli. Aluminium resists rust and corrosion, requires minimal upkeep, and can be powder-coated in a wide range of colours to complement your home or commercial property.
- Glass installations offer a clean, contemporary look that may suit modern homes, apartments, and commercial spaces. They open up sightlines, allow natural light to pass through, and can make smaller spaces feel larger. Both styles are available for indoor and outdoor use, including balconies, decks, staircases, and pool surrounds.
What Safety Standards Apply to Balustrading in NSW?
All installations in NSW must comply with the Australian Building Code and relevant Australian Standards. Gelcon Fabrications Pty Ltd designs and installs railings in Bulli that are built to meet Australian Design Rules (ADR) standards, helping to ensure your project is safe and compliant.
Key safety considerations for NSW balustrading include minimum height requirements, maximum infill spacing to prevent climbing hazards, and load-bearing capacity. Gelcon's team applies these requirements across every project, whether it is a residential staircase or a commercial balcony.

Design and Finish Options
Products can be tailored to suit a wide range of property styles. Aluminium frames are available in various powder coat colours and finishes, while glass panels can be framed or frameless depending on the look you want. All products are custom made, so your installation can be designed to match your existing architecture and fit your exact dimensions.
