Ball-fence is a modular handrail system that is manufactured from galvanised steel that includes posts in a range of configurations, a top (hand) rail and a centre (knee) rail. Design flexibility is a strength of the ball-fence. Ball fence gates are available to suit various configurations. These all have the option to be powder coated. Ball fences have lots of uses but they are commonly used in factories to create a safe pathway for pedestrians to ensure that they are kept out of the way from forklifts and other machinery that may be working in close proximity.
