TAPER-LOC® System eases Balustrade installation at New Olympia swimming and leisure complex, Dundee.
C.R. Laurence's TAPER-LOC® System has facilitated a speedy and simple installation of a new glass balustrade system at Dundee's eagerly awaited new Olympia swimming and leisure complex.
The brand new complex features a 50 metre competition pool, wave pool, rapid river, dive pool, flumes and fitness suite. The Main Pool incorporates a movable floor and end walls to enable it to be reconfigured into a 25 metre Training Pool for clubs and public lane swimming.
The TAPER-LOC® System was used to create a beautiful frameless balustrade in several areas of the pool and leisure complex. The clean lines of balustrade solution offered a simple but effective method to enclose the different types of seating and staircase arrangements.
TAPER-LOC® is the simple way to install glass railings and balustrades it is 50% faster to install than traditional alternatives and as it is a totally dry glaze system there is no need for wet cement. The product is completely unique because it uses a horizontal TAPER-LOC® design, which allows the system to be adjusted, dismantled and re-set easily and efficiently. The TAPER-LOC® System conforms to BS6180:2011 and is ideal for replacing scratched and broken panels in existing applications.
