Sidewalk Guardrail at a Stucco Building
Project Overview
Black vertical-bar guardrail installed along the raised sidewalk and entry walk at a stucco commercial building, returning down the curb-side steps.
Analysis
The walkway sits above street level with a drop along the parking edge. A continuous guard with a return at the steps gives pedestrians one protected path.
Process
Site survey, shop fabrication, coating, installation in one mobilization, and final alignment.
Outcome
A protected pedestrian path from the street to the building entry that meets guard height requirements.
Project Details
Materials Used
Steel posts, top rail and vertical bar infill, satin black coating, welded base plates, and anchors into the concrete walk.
