Lifetime No-Maintenance PVC Balustrade - SANS 10400 Compliant | Ideal for New Developments & Replacements

Are you searching for a durable, cost-effective, and legally compliant balustrade solution that adds lasting beauty and value to your property? Look no further. At Value Fencing® Cape Winelands, we offer South Africa's original, tested, and trusted PVC balustrade systems, perfectly engineered for both replacement projects and new residential developments.

Our balustrades are manufactured from premium UV-resistant PVC (plastic) and are fully compliant with SANS 10400-D regulations. Unlike timber or metal railings, Value Fencing® balustrades are engineer-tested and passed under the rigorous 40kg sandbag pendulum test - making them one of the few balustrade systems in the country that meets this safety standard.

Upgrade with SANS 10400-compliant PVC balustrades in Paarl & Cape Winelands. No maintenance, 20-year warranty, tested for safety. Ideal for new builds & retrofits.

✅ Why Choose PVC Balustrades from Value Fencing®?

1. SANS 10400-D Certified and Pendulum-Tested for Safety

Our PVC balustrades conform to the National Building Regulations (NBR) under SANS 10400-D and have successfully passed the official 40kg pendulum impact safety test - ensuring full compliance for residential estates, lifestyle developments, and multi-story dwellings.

This makes our system ideal for property developers, architects, and estate managers who require legally compliant and structurally safe railing systems.

2. No Maintenance, No Compromise

Unlike wood or steel balustrades that require constant upkeep, Value Fencing® PVC balustrades are 100% maintenance-free. There's no need for painting, sealing, sanding, or rustproofing. Our UV-stabilized, weather-resistant materials are built to withstand the harsh Western Cape climate, from Paarl's summer heat to Worcester's winter chill.

3. Cost-Effective Alternative to Timber & Metal

When you factor in long-term maintenance costs, corrosion issues, and repainting expenses, our PVC balustrade system becomes the most cost-effective balustrade option available in the market today. It's a once-off investment for a lifetime of security and visual appeal.
