Configure your Wood balustrade vertical aluminium rails
Bespoke Wood and Vertical Aluminium Rail Balustrade – Contemporary Interior Design
This bespoke balustrade combines posts and a handrail in wood (fir, beech or oak) with an infill of vertically arranged aluminium rails. The vertical arrangement of the aluminium rails produces a more closed and more secure appearance than the horizontal arrangement — it complies with balustrade standards in terms of spacing (≤ 11 cm between rails) and forms an effective barrier against children passing through.
This model combines the natural look of wood for the structural elements (posts, handrail) with the contemporary and lightweight character of aluminium for the infill. It is suited to modern interiors, lofts and mezzanines where vertical transparency is desired without the horizontal rails of horizontal-bar models. Configured to your dimensions via the WoodUp configurator, delivered as a kit to assemble with instructions and fixings. Interior use only.

Installation advice
The vertical aluminium rails must be perfectly parallel to each other and vertical — use a spirit level for each rail during positioning. Begin by fixing the wooden posts, then insert the aluminium rails into their supports starting from the ends, and finish by fitting the handrail. Apply the wood finish before fitting the rails to avoid any drips on the aluminium.
Maintenance and protection
Apply a vitrifier or oil-wax to the wooden parts before use. The anodised aluminium rails require no treatment. Annual cleaning with soapy water on the whole unit. Check the tightness of the fixings annually.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between vertical and horizontal rails?
The vertical rails Wood balustrade with vertical aluminium rails create a claustra effect — the vertical bars comply with the spacing standard of ≤ 11 cm and prevent any climbing or passage. The horizontal rails Bespoke wood balustrade with metal rails create a more open effect, but the horizontal bars can be used as footholds to climb — not recommended with children. For a family mezzanine, vertical rails are safer.
Is this balustrade suitable for a straight staircase (sloping balustrade)?
This model is primarily designed for landing balustrades at constant height. For a sloping balustrade following the pitch of a staircase, fixing vertical rails to an inclined stringer requires adaptation. Contact WoodUp specifying your staircase configuration (pitch angle, length) to confirm feasibility before ordering.
Can the aluminium rails be coloured (black, white) instead of the natural aluminium tone?
The rails are generally delivered in natural anodised aluminium. Lacquered finishes in black or white may be available depending on the configurator options — check directly on the WoodUp configurator or contact customer service to find out which finishes are available for this model.
Can this balustrade be combined with the WoodUp Quadrum or Ellipsis ranges?
Not directly — this model uses specific wooden posts and its aluminium rails have their own dimensions. The Quadrum range and the Ellipsis range Ellipsis aluminium starter kit are independent systems in pure aluminium with their own posts and accessories. They are not designed to be mixed with this bespoke wood-aluminium model.
Are the vertical aluminium rails delivered in the same finish as the Quadrum and Ellipsis ranges?
This bespoke model uses specific aluminium rails — different from the Quadrum range (16x16 mm square rails) or Ellipsis (Ø16 mm round rails). The natural aluminium finish is generally offered; colour options (black, white) may be available depending on the WoodUp configurator. Contact WoodUp to check the finishes available for the rails of this specific model.
