Peñalara Baluster 80 cm - Up to 104 cm Total Height with Cap
Peñalara 80 cm Baluster: What It Is
This is the 13 × 13 × 80 cm baluster from the Peñalara collection, the one to choose when the railing has to be over one metre high. With the handrail, the assembly reaches 96 cm, and with the top cap added, 104 cm: plenty of margin to meet the required protection height for a terrace or balcony without having to build anything up. It is manufactured using advanced compaction techniques and without internal reinforcement.
✅ Main advantages
104 cm total height: ample margin over the usual one-metre protection height on terraces and balconies.
No internal reinforcement: no steel inside that can rust and burst the piece over the course of many winters.
Advanced compaction: dense body, clean finish and lower water absorption.
15.3 kg per piece: weight that gives the run stability and still allows installation by hand.
Slender profile: a slim shaft that doesn't overload the façade despite the height.
🏗️ Recommended applications
Terrace, balcony and rooftop railings.
Plot enclosures on top of masonry walls.
Outdoor staircase railings.
Galleries, porches and lookout terraces.

🧰 Installation
Check that the supporting wall or ring beam is level and clean.
Set out the centre-to-centre spacing along the whole run before drilling.
Insert the galvanized dowel pin at each marked point; at this height the pin is essential.
Seat the baluster on a bed of bonding mortar, lining it up with the pin.
Plumb each piece one by one and check the alignment of the run with a string line before the mortar starts to set.
Fit the top cap, which ties the whole assembly together, and point the joints at the end.
📦 Available formats
Single unit of 13 × 13 × 80 cm.
Full pallet of 64 units.
💡 Professional tip: at 80 cm high, a baluster without a pin will tip over with a single push while the mortar is still fresh. Drill and insert the pin in every piece, including the middle ones: it's tempting to anchor only the ends to work faster, and that is exactly where the run fails if someone leans on it before it has set.
