Wire Balustrade - The Tensioner Terminal System - Black

Is one of our most streamline systems. It is suitable for use with timber posts and metal posts and is great for both straight sections and stair sections. Tension is created on the wire by threading the Allen Key Tensioner onto the swage stud of the wire using an Allen key. Please Note: This system is threaded right through the end posts and requires tensioning on the outside faces of the post. It is not recommended for corner sections.

Wire Balustrade - Tensioner Terminal System is suitable for use with both timber posts and metal posts.
Wire Balustrade - Tensioner Terminal System is suitable for both flat and stair sections, with the use of bevelled washers on stairs.
All of our wires are made to order. General dispatch is 1-2 business days from the time your order is confirmed, and pick-up orders are ready within the same timeframe. During busy periods please allow an extra business day.
You will require an 8mm hole in both your end connection posts and your intermediate posts. If you are using split grommets, choose them to suit the wall thickness of your intermediate posts: GROM-L-BK (black) or GROM-L-SR (silver) - suits 3-4mm wall thickness GROM-S-BK (black) or GROM-S-SR (silver) - suits 1.6-2mm wall thickness All four grommets are designed for the same 8mm hole, so there is no change to your intermediate post drilling.
Yes, the Tensioner Terminal System can be used on stairs, but you will require 2 x 35 Degree Bevelled Washers per wire.
Please give us your outside post to outside post measurements between your connection posts and we will take care of the rest. Please note this system is measured outside to outside, as it threads right through your end posts and is tensioned on the outside faces.
The maximum recommended span between connection posts for this system is 10 metres.
As with all factory made systems we recommend using 3.2mm 1x19 wire. The fittings are hydraulically pressed onto the wire for a super streamline system.
Just common handyman tools. You will require a power drill, an 8mm drill bit, an Allen key and an adjustable spanner. We also recommend the AWR Multi Tool (MT01-090), which makes installation much easier.
All wires are bundled per section and labelled with your measurements for quick installation on site.
We strongly advise against bending your wire around corners and angled sections. This can fatigue the wire over time as well as damage to your posts (especially timber). Wires should be terminated at each corner and end post.
To comply with Australian NCC regulations most wire balustrades will require 80mm spacing between your wires when your intermediate posts are no more than 1500mm apart. This is usually 11 runs of wire on a 1 metre high balustrade measuring 960mm to the underside of the handrail. This applies to most decks over 1 metre from the ground and below 4 metres from the ground, and there are additional restrictions that may apply. We highly recommend reading the Wire Balustrade Regulations Help section of our website prior to ordering.
