Balustrade & handrail options
KONE's range of balustrade solutions includes optional
extended and asymmetric newels to improve people
flow and provide a neater building interface.
Glass balustrades can be supplied in two height versions,
1,000
mm and 1,100mm, both exceeding the minimum
requirements of EN115.
The tall glass balustrades offer additional passenger
safety and can be selected either in clear glass or from
an optional range of coloured glass.
Optional stainless steel balustrade panels offer a more
durable solution in mass transit environments or areas
susceptible to damage or vandalism. For heavy duty
applications inclined stainless steel balustrades are
available for additional durability.
Handrails are available in a variety of colours to
complement the building décor.
Handrail advertising
KONE can provide escalator handrails that carry a
marketing message. Handrail advertising is ideal for
environments like retail centres where passenger traffic
is high and seasonal messages are likely to assist in
promoting sales and generating additional revenue
for the retailer/building owner.
Step advertising
On upward travelling escalators, passengers almost
always look towards the moving steps in front of
them. KONE’s additional sales and revenue generating
option for retailers/building owners is the provision of
step advertising, an ideal advertising solution for
seasonal promotions.
