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.
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.
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.
Every SWR pre-fabricated post is crafted from top-grade stainless steel and designed to meet strict safety standards — fully tested and compliant with BS 6180. Manufactured with precision to eliminate the measurement errors and alignment issues that come with on-site fabrication.

Addenbrookes Hospital required a large-scale balustrade solution that could improve safety while fitting neatly into a busy healthcare setting.
Pre-fabricated posts arrive fully assembled and ready to install — no cutting, no drilling, no on-site adjustments needed. The posts are manufactured with precision to your specification, so what arrives on site fits correctly first time. Base plates or wall brackets are matched and included. End caps are fitted. Everything is done before the posts leave our facility.
Round and square post profiles are both available as pre-fabricated posts. Specify your preferred profile, diameter or section size, and post height at quote stage. Infill type — wire or glass — is confirmed at order stage as this determines the post drilling specification.
Because the posts are manufactured with precision in a controlled environment — not drilled or cut on a construction site — there are no measurement errors or alignment issues to deal with on installation day. Every post in the set is consistent, and the component schedule supplied with the order confirms exactly what goes where.
Both. Pre-fabricated posts are popular with contractors who install themselves — supply-only is the most common arrangement. For projects in the South East, SWR also offers supply-and-install. Speak to the team at quote stage to confirm what’s available for your location and programme.
Yes. Posts are available pre-specified for wire infill systems or for glass adapter fixings. Confirm your infill type at order stage — the fabrication specification is matched to your infill system.
Tell us your post profile, height, fixing method, infill type and post count and we’ll come back with a fully itemised post schedule and price. Always in stock — next day delivery available.
