Flexi-mesh Balustrade, Notting Hill VIC

Bespoke Wire & Rope collaborated with Roberts Co, LAW Architects, and the Monash Community Family Co-operative to deliver custom Flexi-mesh balustrades for the new childcare centre in Notting Hill. The system was engineered and detailed using the builder’s 3D model, allowing Bespoke to design precise connection points and integrate additional scope into the final solution.

Location: Duerdin St, Notting Hill VIC

Completion Date: September 2024

Client: Monash Community Family Co-operative

Builder: Roberts Co

Architect: LAW Architects

Our Scope

Bespoke designed, engineered, supplied, and installed a Flexi-mesh balustrade system using 2.0mm 40x70mm mesh with tensioned stainless steel perimeter cables. Working from the builder’s 3D steel and concrete model, we created accurate shop drawings and custom-engineered fixing details.

During design development, Bespoke proposed owning the slab-face detail, integrating the slab finish, L1 kicker plate, and structural support for the bottom cable fixings into a single coordinated element. This detail was fabricated and installed by our team, streamlining the build process and delivering a consistent outcome.

We also coordinated closely with the glass balustrade contractor to ensure their fixing details were accommodated within our kicker plate design.

The balustrades were installed to:

  • Deliver compliant fall protection for a childcare facility

  • Provide a lightweight, transparent, and durable Flexi-mesh system

  • Integrate slab-face details and kicker plates for structural and aesthetic consistency

  • Coordinate seamlessly with other trades, ensuring buildability and design intent

This project highlights Bespoke’s ability to adapt designs, own complex detailing, and collaborate with multiple contractors to deliver architectural balustrade systems.
