Railings

At DAV NORDIC, we deliver and install everything in railings for personal protection.

Railings cover everything from handrails, to simple pipe railings and on to sturdy and massive personal railings with balusters as filling.

In addition to experienced project managers, who always do their best to make your project exactly as desired, DAV NORDIC also has its own design studio, engineers and quality department. In other words, we are able to take professional care of your railing project from the design stage right to assembly.

Bridge railings and - guards

Bridge railings function both as railings and as guardrails. Bridge railings increase safety as they provide a higher safety surface than the guardrail. This helps to ensure that in the event of a collision, vehicles remain on the road and do not drive over the bridge.

The bridge railing is mounted directly on the bridge with scepters, on which beams, spacers and, at the top, a handrail are mounted. Often the B-profile of a crash barrier is mounted on the beams, as the crash barrier continues on both sides of the bridge. It therefore makes sense, both in terms of minimizing gaps in security and for it to look uniform.

Different uses

What makes the bridge railings particularly strong is that they are constructed with rejection beams, which, among other things, enables the railings to hold vehicles on the road.

It is possible to supply bridge railings in several different strength classes depending on your needs. We supply bridge railings that are impact tested and certified according to EN 1317-5. All bridge railings have been tested for passenger cars and various types of heavy traffic, including trucks and buses with different weights.

Pipe railings

Pipe railings, as the name suggests, consist of pipes that are either hollow or filled. It is a classic looking railing that can be used in many situations.

All our railings are produced in hot-dip galvanized steel, which ensures a long maintenance-free service life. In addition, our pipe railings are certified according to EN 1090.

Use

It is typically used in places where there is a desire for shielding, but where collision-tested railings are not required. For example, bridges over streams or other roads. If you are looking for something that has been impact tested, see our track railings here.

Standard pipe railings

Our standard pipe railings are mounted directly into the side of the crash barrier with continuous bolts/threaded rods in the crash barrier pillars. Pipe railings can be mounted equally easily on both concrete and steel barriers. This method also means that it is easy to retrofit pipe railings to an existing guardrail.

Among other things, the railings are assembled with "tube-clamps", which provides good opportunities for flexibility and expansion in the event of a collision. The use of tube-clamps also makes the railing easy to mount.

Standard pipe railings are supplied as two types:

20° forward inclined - for crash barriers mounted with spacers.
Straight - where the guardrail is mounted directly into the post.

Looking for lane railings?

Lane railings are pipe railings typically used on and at slopes along the track. Lane railings are often erected at bridges or crossings where there are guardrails on the bridge over the track and to prevent access to the track, railings are erected between the road and the track.

Special railings

At DAV Nordic we are experts in special solutions and designs. This also applies to railings, where we adapt both the strength, mounting and appearance of the railing based on your wishes and needs.

Seven bridges with flat iron railings and special mounting

Among other things, we have delivered railings for seven bridges in the new residential area Sundmolen in Nordhavn, Copenhagen. Here we delivered a railing consisting of flat steel with transverse balusters, as the railing had to fit into the surrounding cubist building style. Special to this railing is its mounting. Normally, railings are mounted with individual scepters that are connected to balusters, but here the entire railing was one piece of e.g. 7 meters. The railing was mounted on a flood plate that was continuous throughout the bridge, and thus the length of the railing.

Footbridge with light in the handrail

For Gullev near Bjerringbro, we have delivered a special railing with built-in light in the handrail, i.e. the top continuous plate. The bridge was set up to ensure easy crossing for pedestrians and cyclists over a busy road. In this case, the entire bridge was completed in a single night, where large parts of the railing were installed at the factory and the last elements were completed after the installation of the bridge.
