Description
8′Â LiteDeck open handrail
Handrails are a key component in creating safe and usable working platforms.
All LiteDeck handrail products are constructed from 6082T6 aluminium section and are designed to bolt quickly and securely to specific mounting points on each deck’s side.
LiteDeck handrails are available in two configurations, with the appropriate handrail system dependent upon the application and, therefore, the required legislative conformity.
Renowned for enduring performance and smart aesthetic design, LiteDeck is the most popular decking system in the demanding world of touring productions.
Tried and tested worldwide, it is a lightweight yet robust staging solution with a proven record of reliable performance.
A variety of options for the top board surface completes the LiteDeck range.
The finish is a durable 19 mm plywood painted matte black connected (as with all tops) by a set of bolts that allow removal, maintenance, and replacement.
For more elaborate applications, LiteDeck is also available with clear/acrylic tops to allow the transmission of lights from under the stage or open aluminium mesh tops to facilitate the use of pyrotechnics or smoke effects.
The LiteDeck system is designed to provide a 5 kN/m² uniform load rating in all configurations when used in compliance with our assembly guidelines.
