No other supplier offers as many extensively tested products and systems as Q-railing:
Computer models – with FEM simulations (Finite Element Method)
Practical tests – to simulate line loads and unexpected forces
Independent testing and calculation certifications – by well-established institutes
It all starts when our designers begin to think about a new product. Before the first drawings are created, safety issues are already being addressed. This is one of the many reasons why all of our products meet the highest standards and requirements for quality and safety. From the quality of the materials we use, to our designs, engineering and installation instructions, safety always comes first. In fact, we emphasise this approach in everything we do.
Q-railing's products are thoroughly tested and certified to meet the strictest safety regulations around the world, and all comply with the main international and local building codes and standards.
Our products and systems are tested/calculated and certified by leading institutes and authorities.
Watch videos of internal testing of balustrades, full glass balustrades and French balcony balustrades. They have been tested in accordance with the main building codes and standards. This ensures compliance with the laws of all countries where our railings are marketed. In accordance with Finnish building regulations, the durability of the railing is checked by a strength calculation. However, we wanted to show how the railing behaves in real life and at the specified nominal loads.
You can trust our systems to meet the requirements of your next railing project.
