A deluxe, eye-catching balustrade with a rounded post profile to suit any environment — AISI304 indoor or AISI316 outdoor. Our round modular balustrade system comes with brackets to support toughened glass, giving you uninterrupted views and an understated, contemporary look. Flexible by design — it can go round corners, over steps and up and down stairs.
A typical round modular system includes the following components, priced and documented for installation. We can supply additional components, post extensions and bespoke lengths by arrangement.
42.9mm or 48.3mm diameter round stainless posts in satin finish. Floor-fixed or wall-fixed variants. 304 or 316 grade.
Matching base plates for floor fixing or wall brackets for face fixing. Components can be pre-drilled and supplied with fixings.
Stainless glass clamps or adapters to hold toughened glass panels at the correct stand-off. Available in matching satin finish.
8mm–17.76mm toughened glass panels and cut to size. Unobstructed views throughout.
Round or slotted stainless top handrail available with or without the system. Supplied to length.
Tensioning tool, full installation drawings (PDF + DWG), and a printed quick-reference card.
An interactive tool to design your round modular system — choose post diameter, fixing method, glass thickness and run length, with a fully costed PDF quote to send to your installer. Choose from corner posts, inline posts and step options at your fingertips.
Each of the three systems below is a complete, modular product set designed for a specific application — built to your spec, fully matched and priced as one. Pick the one that fits your project.
CIRCULAR POSTS · SATIN/MIRROR FINISH · WIRE/GLASS/PANEL INFILL
The most popular modular profile. Circular posts in satin or mirror-polished stainless, with your choice of wire, glass or perforated infill. A clean, contemporary look that suits both residential and commercial settings.
PRE-DRILLED · CUT TO YOUR DIMENSIONS · READY TO INSTALL
Posts supplied pre-drilled and ready to install. No cutting, no tapping on site — everything arrives specified to your dimensions. The fastest route from order to finished balustrade.
4mm · diy-friendly · pre-cut to length
Pre-cut, pre-tensioned stainless wire kits for self-builders fitting their own balustrade. Includes wire, tensioners, posts and full installation guide. Quick despatch.
SQUARE POSTS · SATIN/MIRROR FINISH · WIRE/GLASS/PANEL INFILL
A bolder, more architectural post profile. Square-section stainless posts suit contemporary interiors, industrial-aesthetic spaces and commercial staircases where a sharper line is the design intent.
Our Vertical Wire Modular system is manufactured from premium stainless steel and designed for strength, durability and long-term performance. Every component is produced to the same high standards as the rest of our balustrade range, ensuring a consistent, high-quality finish across every project.

SWR round modular posts are available in 42.9mm and 48.3mm. The right system depends on load requirements, building regs, fixing substrate and other bespoke elements. Speak to the team.
The round modular system supports toughened glass from 8mm up to 12mm in thickness. Glass is supplied and cut to your specified panel sizes. Laminated glass is available for overhead glazing or fall-arrest applications where required.
Yes. The round modular system is flexible by design — it can accommodate corners, changes in direction and stepped or ramped applications. Corner posts, step brackets and adjustable components are available to suit your specific layout. Confirm your geometry at quote stage and we’ll specify the correct components.
Under UK building regulations, a graspable handrail is required in most applications. The round modular system is available with or without a top handrail — if you’re specifying for a staircase or ramp, a handrail will be required. SWR supplies matching round or slotted stainless top rails to suit the system.
AISI304 grade is standard for most indoor and sheltered outdoor applications. AISI316 marine-grade stainless is available for outdoor, coastal, pool and high-humidity environments. Specify your environment at quote stage and we’ll confirm the correct grade.
Tell us your post preference, glass thickness, run length and application and we’ll come back with a full specification and price. Floor fixed or wall fixed, with or without handrail — we’ll spec it correctly first time.
