Comprehensive Site Protection: From Playgrounds to Perimeters

Every area of an educational estate has distinct operational needs. Our diverse product range ensures that every boundary, entrance, and vulnerable asset is reliably protected:  

• Vertical & Bowtop Railings: Ideal for playgrounds, multi-use games areas (MUGA), and pedestrian zones, providing a safe, welcoming aesthetic without compromising on safety compliance. Head options include bow top, ball top, and standard vertical bars.  
  ‍
• Security & Palisade Fencing: For high-protection perimeters, our robust palisade systems feature strong D or W pale profiles with multiple top options (including single pointed, triple pointed, or round and notched) to prevent unauthorised access.  
  ‍
• Access & Playground Gates: Tailored pedestrian and vehicle access points engineered to integrate seamlessly with your chosen fencing system, ensuring smooth site management.  
  ‍
• Window Grilles & Barsets: Heavy-duty physical security layers designed to safeguard vulnerable ground-floor windows and property from vandalism or intrusion.  

Supporting Compliance, Safety, and Accessibility

Modern education management demands strict adherence to health, safety, and building regulations. Steelway’s structural solutions support your compliance goals across the entire facility:  

• Fire Escapes & Emergency Exits: Custom-built external steel staircases and emergency doors provide durable, reliable egress routes for multi-story school buildings.  
  ‍
• Roof Handrails & Edge Protection: Permanent, fabricated handrails deliver robust edge protection for maintenance teams, ensuring compliance with working-at-height regulations.  
  ‍
• Fixed CAT Ladders: Secure, caged access ladders providing authorised personnel with safe and practical entry to restricted rooftops, plant rooms, and service decks.
