Stylish staircases can make all the difference

There are many ways to beautify your abode and transform it into your own distinctive home.  And any residence that has upper levels or balconies needs railings or staircases or a combination of both.  But what some people may not realise is that your home can be defined and complemented by stylish railings and staircases.

Margate Engineering, a firm that has been on the local security and engineering scene since 1958, is a company that’s well-experienced when it comes to balustrades and staircases.  Managing Director Geoff Howard-Tripp says, “We’ve invested in a profile bending machine which is capable of producing creative and graceful arcs on steel piping and railing.  And coupling this with our extensive experience in this field and a client’s specific request or taste, we manufacture some of the most sturdy, yet elegant, staircases in our region.  Some clients like stainless steel while others may prefer the verdigris or galvanised look.  We also sometimes work with other contractors to make interesting combinations such as steel and timber which has proven popular.”

Margate Engineering supplies a whole range of security installation including burglar proofing, garage doors, window shuttering and security automation. Visit them today at their factory in Manaba Beach or on their informational website at www.margateengineering.co.za
