AliRail Vertical infill Balustrade and AliRail Juliet Systems Now Available for Specification in NBS Source
Due to the ongoing Building Safety Crisis and the strict reviews placed upon Building Regulations, it is imperative that architects and designers only use reliably sourced, fully compliant materials. Thankfully, the full range of AliDeck balcony component systems can be found on the National Building Specification (NBS) portal, so those with upcoming projects can rest assured that simple specification of compliant solutions is just a few button clicks away!
Serving architects and specifiers, AliDeck is committed to making balcony specification a simple process
A standardised format of construction product information is available through NBS, a credible and highly-regarded specification platform designed for those working on new-build projects as well as remediation and refurbishment. Many architects and engineers use this platform to seamlessly integrate the products available into the specification of their upcoming projects. AliDeck have worked hard to provide NBS with accurate and detailed data regarding our products to ensure that architects can feel confident in their decision-making when selecting our products.
AliDeck have recently added our aluminium metal balustrade systems to our NBS product portfolio. These modern balustrade systems comprise of the AliRail Vertical Infill Balustrade System and the AliRail Juliet System. With multiple spindle options available, designers are provided with a range of choices to achieve sleek, modern balcony balustrades.
AliRail Vertical Infill Balcony Balustrade
AliRail Vertical Infill Balustrade is a complete solution for all modern balustrade and rail requirements on both steel cantilever and concrete inset balconies. The aluminium balustrades are supplied bespoke to specification in kit-form, providing excellent versatility for balcony manufacturers.
Balustrade designs include Rectangular, Bullet and Bullnose Spindles with each offering a unique aesthetic. The Bullet and Bullnose were designed following close conversations with our customers, proving popular options among leaseholders. Spindle heights are 1100mm as standard to meet BS8579:2020, higher elevations are available bespoke.
AliRail Juliet Balcony System
The AliRail Juliet Balcony Railing System is used on non-projecting balconettes. Also supplied in versatile kit-form to meet specification, our modern Juliet balcony railing systems are available in two installation options: inner-mounted within the reveal or outer-mounted to the face of the external wall.
With balconette balustrades simply fixed into the framework, installation is quickly completed with fitting of the handrail cover. As with the Vertical Infill system, spindle heights are a minimum of 1100mm in order to meet compliance unless bespoke specifications are required.
Aluminium balustrades are highly cost-effective, the durable and future-proof design of our products means a life expectancy of 60 years. Partnered with a 30-year manufacturer guarantee, it is clear to see why our aluminium decking boards and balcony components are rapidly becoming the de facto standard for architects and designers within the construction industry across the UK & Ireland who can now easily specify our balustrade system products using NBS for their projects.

AliRail is constructed completely from 100% aluminium (6063 T6 grade), up to 67% of which has been recycled to make this system eco-friendly and much better for the environment.
AliRail is aluminium and finished using the 5 stage Qualicoat system, therefore little-to-no maintenance is required other than cleaning with a warm, damp and scratch free cloth.
The approximate weight per linear metre of AliRail is 16kg. This may vary slightly according to design specification and installation options.
All AliRail products have been independently tested for loading performance to BS 6180: 2011, Barriers In and About Buildings
