Cable mesh is increasingly opted for as security in or around a stairwell. It is an economical and sustainable solution because virtually no steel work is required. Major advantages compared to other materials are the high transparency and the light construction that is required. The industrial and modern "look" complete it. In general, a cable mesh net from the top to the bottom floor can consist of one piece.
material
The cable mesh is made of stainless steel AISI316 (also known as 1.4401 or A4 quality). We can guarantee this quality 100% through European certificates. For this application, this steel quality is technically the best solution for price and delivery time.
mesh size
The size of the openings in the mesh is also referred to as the diamond size. A diamond size of 60mm is generally used in stairwells. The diameter of the cable is usually 2mm. Other mesh sizes are also possible, but not common in stairwells.
border cables
The mesh is usually stretched between a border cable. The border cable is guided through eyes on the landings and the floor edges. This is the most transparent way of detailing. The eyes are chemically anchored in the concrete or, if possible, anchors are included in the stairs and landings.
border tube
Pendulum rod can be welded directly to the steelwork and powder coated together with the construction. This creates a tight detailing and the nets can be ideally attached to this. This detailing accelerates the assembly time on site. This is also suitable to prevent finger entrapment.
edge of cable in combination with duct
From an aesthetic or constructive point of view, the circumferential tension cable can be guided through eyes on a rigid edge construction. In general, box or U-profiles are used with a grommet every meter. The sagging of the circular cable is then more visible.
