Also, our gratings can accommodate ADA requirements for wheelchair accessibility and also provide safe/sure footing for all types of footwear – from work boots to ladies shoes with the narrowest of high heels.
In addition, BarnettBates custom fabricated and color-coordinated architectural accents (fencing, equipment enclosures, infills, gates, sunscreens, etc.) can enhance and add the finishing touch to large or small architectural design projects. More than a dozen open pattern and louver styles offer a “feature material” range appropriate for nearly all architectural design concepts.
