Maulyte Building Contractors, South East London
Type of works: supply and installation of FUSION® Commercial balustrade.

Located in the Royal Arsenal, the 5,000 sq ft industrial unit has been transformed into a contemporary office suite, comprising a lobby area and mezzanine level, all fronted by smoked floor-to-ceiling glass windows and linked with a feature staircase.

The aim was to create a modern, stylish and professional design that would reflect the quality of Maulyte’s interiors and inspire visitors and clients with ideas and confidence.

FUSION® Commercial balustrade was installed on two flights along the entrance wall and side wall, providing access from the ground to the first floor. The staircase was a straight closed string with a straight step.

The first flight consists of 6 steps, leading to a quarter turn with landing. A further 12 steps form the final flight, which finishes with a 90º turn top landing.

Steve Creamer, Director at Maulyte Building Contractors, said: “First impressions count so when we decided to transform our industrial unit into a showroom of high-specification products, we had to set the right tone with the entrance staircase. On seeing an advert for FUSION® Commercial, we contacted Richard Burbidge and were supplied with a training DVD. The instant availability of the product together with its ease of installation, innovative design and contemporary finish meant that we could keep to our programme schedule and achieve the look we wanted. The final result is really impressive and the staircase creates a striking focal point which many customers have already commented on. Ultimately, Richard Burbidge has delivered exactly what we needed.”
