As demand grows for refined architectural expression, balustrade systems must balance visual lightness with function and longevity. Belcanto’s Attaché balustrades enabled Studio Pacific to achieve a clean, modern aesthetic while maintaining structural performance and compliance. The design removed excess components and focused on simplicity, without sacrificing strength. Each detail was considered carefully to maintain sightlines and eliminate visual noise.

With any balustrade system, the key to simplicity lies beneath the surface. Attaché’s engineering team worked with the design and construction teams early in the process to reduce on-site complexity, and detailing that allowed for building movement. The prefabricated aluminium system was delivered ready to install, supporting faster sequencing and reducing risk during installation. With fewer trades and a single warranty, it helped simplify coordination for the main contractor.

Backed by over 20 years of balustrade expertise, Belcanto’s project team ensured consistent delivery from design resolution to final install. Every detail – fixings, finishes and interfaces – was refined for both performance and visual clarity, allowing for architectural refinement.

What Our Clients say

At Metlifecare Gulf Rise, Belcanto fixed 12 balcony units in a single day. The system allows us to complete the facade sooner, bringing down the scaffolding up to a month earlier, which accelerates work on adjacent civil and landscaping projects. It’s refreshing when something just works as planned, without any issues.

We’ve now used the Grappler system on three buildings for Metlifecare. Our client saw the value in how it reduced risk to the envelope design while delivering significant speed and cost savings. It’s proven to be a real success.
