Tubular Handrail Systems

Tubular Handrail Systems for safer access.

Boundary Access Systems supplies and installs Tubular handrails, guardrails and tubular safety barriers for access routes, platforms, steps, ramps, plant areas and exposed edges across commercial and industrial sites.

Safe access systems

Strong tubular handrails without slow bespoke fabrication.

Tubular Handrail Systems use galvanised tube and mechanical fittings to create durable handrails and guardrails that can be configured around real site conditions. They are ideal where safe access, fall prevention and route definition need to be installed quickly and cleanly.

  • Flexible layouts: rails can follow steps, ramps, platforms, machinery zones and uneven site boundaries.
  • Robust fittings: mechanical Tubular Handrail connectors provide a strong modular system without relying on on-site welding.
  • Commercial safety: clear physical separation around exposed edges, pedestrian routes, equipment and service areas.
  • Low-maintenance finish: galvanised tube and fittings support long-term external and industrial use.

Where it works

Practical protection for routes, edges and working areas.

A good handrail installation should feel like part of the site, not an afterthought. BAS plans each run around how people move, where falls or impacts could occur, and what needs to remain accessible for maintenance.

Specified around the site

Tubular Handrail Systems make safety improvements fast, strong and adaptable.

BAS can design, supply and install handrail and guardrail runs to suit exposed edges, access points, service routes and site-specific hazards.

TubeGalvanised tubular sections selected to suit the run, exposure and use case.
FittingsMechanical Tubular Handrail connectors for corners, returns, slopes and junctions.
FixingBase plates, posts and anchors planned around the substrate and layout.
FinishDurable galvanised appearance with painted options where visual contrast is required.

Installation process

Measured, installed and checked around live-site access.

01

Survey

We check routes, level changes, edge risks, substrates and how the area is used day to day.

02

Layout

Tube runs, posts, returns, gates and fixing points are planned for safe, practical movement.

03

Install

The system is cut, assembled and fixed on site with minimal disruption and no on-site welding requirement.

04

Check

Completed rails are reviewed for alignment, fixing, clearance, safe use and finish before handover.
