PP-PRODUCT PRESENTATION
The Grigliato railing system utilizes the strength and
flexibility of the Grigliato panels from Metalco
The Grigliato System enables us to offer an affordable
modular system, which is practical, durable and sturdy. This
unique railing system provides a wide variety of design
solutions. It can be brightly colored and configured to be a
design feature or it can blend inconspicuously with the
surroundings.
The Grigliato panels are ideally suited for retrofitting
existing railing systems, which are not in compliance with
current building codes.
Grigliato is an electro-forged welded steel panel. The
panels are hot-dip galvanized according to ASTM A 123. Also
available as an option is our extremely durable polyester
powder finish.
Railing System
The Grigliato railing system can span between post supports
or be mounted onto structurally suitable elements. An
average post spacing of 3'-6" to 4'-0" for stairs and 3'-6"
to 4'-6" for straight sections is recommended. The system
can span up to 12' if optional horizontal supports are used.
See the CAD details that follow for additional information.
Please contact Metalco for engineering and design assistance
when preparing detail solutions.
Handrails
For railing types we offer as an option these handrail
types: channel, square and rectangular tubes. Handrails may
be finished to match or contrast with the supports and
panels. Wood and other handrail materials can also be
specified and supplied by Metalco .

Curved Panels
All Grigliato panels are available in a curved design. The minimum radius that can be rolled is
9". The radius would be perpendicular to the steel bar.
AI-ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION
Posts can be attached to the structure below in several
ways: Using the recessed method, posts are set into cored
holes or sleeves and anchored with non-shrink grout.
Using the surface mount method, mounting plates attached to
each post are expansion bolted to the structure below.
In the face mount method, the railing posts are mounted to
the face of the structure typically below the level of the
walking surface.
MF-MATERIALS, FINISHES
Thermosetting Polyester Powder Finish
Metalco Fence and Railing panels are protected by what we
believe is the best finish available today. The computer
controlled hot-dip galvanizing and the thermosetting
polyester powder finish give the Metalco System the highest
possible protection against rust and corrosion.
The advanced polyester powder coating technology is
environmentally friendly (no solvents, lead free) and offers
a large color selection.
Colors
Eight standard colors are available: white, black, blue,
green, red, yellow, gray and brown. Additionally, we offer
an almost unlimited selection of custom colors. The
polyester powder coating is available for all our products
including oversized parts, i.e. large gates.
20-Year
Limited Warranty
Metalco fencing systems are free from defects in material
and workmanship.
The hot-dip galvanized coating can leave minor impurities on
the treated surface, i.e., flashing, drips, drops, etc.
These do not impair the coating in terms of corrosion
resistance. The polyester coated galvanized metal is
guaranteed not to rust, crack, peel or blister for a period
of 20 years. Accidental damages, defects resulting from
improper installation and damage from vandalism or abuse are
not included. Warranty is limited to a prorated value of the
coating, not to exceed the original value of the coating.
