Modern Architecture
Pretty and Safe
In architecture, an interplay between shape and function is necessary to build sophisticated constructions. Our products are developed under the same requirements. Therefore, Graepel metal profile gratings are also excellent structural elements: whether as load-bearing flooring, stairway elements, spiral staircases, catwalks, bridges, presentation areas or facade elements - not only do they safely fulfill their function but they integrate well into various architectural styles due to their timeless design. Different joining techniques, flexible design options and high durability ensure that highest demands of the various fields of application are met. Please find a presentation of some examples below. We look forward to creative tasks and new challenges.

- The flights are held by a steel support structure which is open to all directions in all weathers.
- Underfoot safety is provided by steps of perforation type Graepel Round S with perforated stepping edge to prevent slipping off.
- Each flight of stairs has 168 steps. Hot-dip galvanized steel gives corrosion protection.
The structure of the 27-meter-high tower at the "European Green Belt", the former east/west border, seems to be only made of stairways. The free-standing stairway has the shape of a double helix. One spiral flight of stairs leads upstairs, another one downstairs. The flights are only held by a steel support structure and are exposed to all weathers. Underfoot safety and stability is provided by metal profile gratings of perforation type Graepel Round S.
