Our Scope
Bespoke supplied and installed over 1,000 vertical balustrade cables as part of Bendigo TAFE’s campus revitalisation project. A series of workshop meetings with the project engineer, builder, and architect ensured every detail was resolved before fabrication and installation.
Our skilled metalworker fabricated and installed painted steel angles and bracketry, providing neat and accurate attachment points for the cables. All cables were manufactured using 4mm 1x19 hamma X stainless steel with industry-leading swage fittings from Arcus Wire Group.
The balustrades were installed to:
Deliver a compliant and durable fall protection system
Provide a visually clean and precise architectural detail
Showcase over 1,000 vertical stainless steel cables with consistent alignment
Support the architect’s design intent while meeting structural requirements
This project highlights Bespoke’s capacity to manage large-scale installations that require both engineering precision and architectural finish.
