Bow Top Railing


The Perfect Touch of Elegance and Security

Bow top railings provide a safe, elegant way to define boundaries around parks, playgrounds, schools, residential developments, and public spaces. Their smooth, curved finish eliminates sharp edges, making them particularly suitable wherever children or pedestrians are present.

Every panel is manufactured from robust galvanised steel and finished with a polyester powder coating (PPC) in a wide choice of RAL colours. The result is a strong, low-maintenance system that blends security with visual appeal.

Practical Applications

  • Public gardens and landscaped areas
  • School perimeters and playground boundaries
  • Residential developments and housing estates
  • Pathways, parks, and recreational spaces
  • Commercial premises seeking decorative security

Whether you need a small decorative run or a full perimeter system, these bow top metal railings give long-lasting, reliable protection.



Key Features and Benefits

  • Smooth, child-safe profile: The continuous curved top prevents snagging and makes the fence safer for areas used by children.
  • Durable construction: Galvanised steel to EN ISO 1461 with PPC finish provides excellent corrosion resistance and colour stability.
  • Flexible installation: Supplied with either dig-in or bolt-down posts to suit soil, tarmac, or concrete.
  • Quick assembly: Panels, posts, and fixings are included for straightforward on-site installation.
  • Choice of heights and colours: Available from 0.9 m to 2.4 m to match both security needs and visual preferences.

Unlike many standard systems, IMS bow top railings are produced using an energy-efficient process that reduces welding and minimises environmental impact. This precision manufacturing ensures uniform quality across every panel and component.

Bow Top Railing FAQs

What sizes are available?

Panels are offered in multiple heights, from 0.9 m up to 2.4 m, enabling use in decorative settings as well as higher-security applications.

What is the difference between dig-in and bolt-down posts?

Dig-in posts are set directly into the ground with concrete or post mix, ideal for soft soil. Bolt-down posts are designed for hard standings such as concrete or asphalt, with base plates for anchor bolts.

How long will the finish last outdoors?

The galvanised substrate and PPC coating provide long-term protection against corrosion and UV fading. In normal conditions, only occasional cleaning and periodic inspections are required.

Can these railings be customised?

Yes. Panels can be supplied in a wide range of RAL colours and special sizes. Bespoke gate sections can be added to match the railings for a uniform perimeter.

Are bow top railings suitable for commercial security fencing?

Yes. While often chosen for parks and housing, the robust steel construction and optional increased heights mean they can also form part of commercial security fencing where aesthetics and safety are both important.

Do they comply with UK safety standards?

When correctly installed, these railings meet the relevant British Standards for fencing in public spaces, supporting compliance with planning and safety requirements.
