Alpha Rail Reveal Juliette Balconies
A new range of Juliette balconies has been released by bespoke architectural metalwork manufacturer Alpha Rail.
Five designs have been introduced by the company to enable developers to make the most of natural light in their properties at all levels, through patio doors or full height windows.
With the growth in the number of three storey townhouses and apartments, Juliette balconies are becoming highly desirable as they enhance the living space and increase the perceived value of a development.
Phill Ball, Sales Director for Alpha Rail, explains: “We recognised the demand in the market for high quality Juliette balconies and we designed five attractive competitively-priced ranges that will complement a wide range of house styles.
“Balconies on the upper levels in a home are becoming more popular as developers look for ways to add as much natural light as possible. We are really excited about the opportunities this gives developers to differentiate their properties, add value and create greater appeal with buyers.”
The five new ranges have been created to complement both contemporary and more classic house and apartment styles.
Manufactured from mild steel from the UK, the Juliette balconies are produced to the highest quality standards. The balconies are available in five standard widths: 1,250mm, 1,550mm, 1,850mm, 2,150mm and 2,450mm, and are 1,100mm high.
The materials are subsequently galvanised to provide anti-corrosion properties and the rane is powder coated in a robust black finish as standard, with customised colours available on request.
The powder coating contains no solvent and so is therefore more environmentally friendly.
All Juliette balconies from Alpha Rail come with a 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee.
The five standard ranges are available within a 20-working day lead-time, from receipt of order, with delivery direct to site. Bespoke designs normally require a six-week lead-time.
