Emergency Exit Handrails
Safety-compliant steel handrails for emergency egress routes.
Engineering Excellence in Emergency Exit Handrails
Thobal fabricates and installs emergency exit handrails engineered to meet Saudi Building Code (SBC 801) fire and life-safety requirements. Our handrails are fabricated from galvanised or powder-coated steel with certified weld quality, and installed along emergency egress corridors, staircases, and roof access points. Every system is load-tested and documented to provide reliable guidance and support during evacuation scenarios.
Why Clients Choose Thobal
- SBC 801 compliant handrail heights, clearances, and loading
- Galvanised, powder-coated, and stainless steel options
- Certified welding with full quality documentation
- Engineered wall and post fixings for rated substrates
- Continuous grab lines through turns and landings
- Rapid fabrication and phased installation in live buildings
Scope of Work & Deliverables
Dedicated engineering supervision and full-scope execution across every stage of emergency exit handrails.
Handrails are fabricated from galvanised, powder-coated, or stainless steel with certified welds, and installed along egress corridors, staircases, and roof access with continuous grab lines — verified against SBC 801 geometry, heights, and loadings before fabrication.
Every system is load-tested and documented to support Civil Defense sign-off, with phased night or weekend installation available in live buildings — delivering reliable, code-compliant egress for towers, hospitals, and schools.
Execution follows a certified workflow — SBC 801 compliance review, precision fabrication, surface treatment, and engineered fixing to rated substrates followed by load testing and documentation. Quality is assured through weld inspection, dimensional verification, and material certificates, while safety governs phased installation along live egress routes. Deliverables include structural calculations, load test reports, and as-built documentation supporting Civil Defense and authority sign-off.
