Arena Points balustrade style is designed for, but is not limited to, use in projects within the following scope:

• Can be used on but not limited to, internal and external decks, mezzanines, and stairways.
• Suitability for the occupancy type for part of the building or structure but cannot be used for C5 or F/G.
• Building height up to three stories or more.
• Can be used in side fixed applications. Specifications allow fixing into concrete, timber and steel.

Cannot be used for 'C1/C2', 'C5' or 'D' Loadings. In these applications, UNEX recommends the use of its 'Extreme Barriers' range of styles which has been specifically developed for these higher loadings in crowd and public situations.

For certain buildings such as architectural sky rises (over 3 stories high), light commercial, and high pollution areas, a higher grade powder coat powder must be specified.

UNEX has designed its Arena-Points range to comply with the B1, B2, E2, F2, F4, and F9 requirements of the NZ Building Code and are suitable for occupancy types 'A', 'B', 'E' and 'C3' in accordance with AS/NZS 1170.

Producer Statements for all standard specifications can be created online in the registered area of the UNEX website.

For non-standard situations not covered by UNEX specifications, a site-specific PS1 and specification may be prepared by UNEX upon request.

UNEX has specialised in designing and manufacturing architectural balustrade systems throughout Australasia and beyond since 1981.  

This 'Arena Points' frameless glass style has been incorporated in Unex’s range since 2012, designed in response to increasing needs of the market place for a range of frameless glass styles. This system has since been used in a number of projects throughout New Zealand.
