Barrier Components Celebrating 30 years trading


Barrier Components Ltd, has traded as a specialist architectural hardware supplier since 1987. 

Based in Purfleet, Essex they constantly strive to source new and innovative hardware products, from around the world, to provide a one-stop-shop with respected technical support for their customers.

The company’s product portfolio broadly includes swing, sliding and folding door systems, glass hardware, balustrade systems, gate hardware, shower enclosure components and brush strips and seals. But their success has come not only from a wide product range, it is from the detail and energy they pour into sourcing new innovations, testing them and bringing them to the UK market.

Barrier Components prides itself on the long-standing supplier partnerships it has with leading manufacturers across the world. Brands like FAC of Italy that supply a wide range of steel components for cantilever, swing and sliding steel gates. Their recent additions are bi-folding and telescopic kits for all sliding solutions. 

LOCINOX of Belgium is another supply partner with a focus on high security lock systems. They design and manufacture the largest range of locks for steel gate systems in the world together with self-close mechanisms for swing gate systems. HELAFORM of Finland supply Barrier with heavy duty industrial and agricultural sliding door solutions. 

 The COLCOM group (including SADEV of France) offer a solution for frameless glass facades and balustrade systems and GCC of Taiwan supply an extensive range of glass components for shop fronts and shower enclosures. These are just a few of Barrier Components long-term suppliers, quality brands that ensure that Barrier Components keep on offering the very latest product innovations.

One Balustrade Channel To Rule Them All…

One of Barrier Components most recent successes has been in capturing a large share of the balustrade system market with their supplier Sadev. In the spring of 2016 they introduced the Barrier-SABCO balustrade hardware system boasting a hi-tech, sleek and minimal finish and offering the perfect cost effective solution for Frameless glass providing an installation that’s designed to be simple to install and achieves the stringent BS EN 6180:2011 3kN performance*.

Consistent development saw a now popular addition introduced last year to complement the system, a high quality RGBW LED lighting strip. The strips can be used with either a 12v or 24v power supply and has an impressive 60 LED’s per metre. It is IP68 rated for external use, comes with a 5 year warranty and can be purchased with a range of RF remote controls. They also introduced Juliet balcony kits into their range enabling supply for a popular domestic trend.


Steel Posts & Spigots

Barrier Components selection of stainless steel posts and spigots are also proving to be increasingly popular, triggered by the current growth in sales of glass balustrade systems. They have a range of pre-assembled posts, tilt-loc spigots and stand-off adapters suitable for a wide range of applications.

In fact their broad range of glass hardware includes hinges, patch fittings, door handles, clamps & point fixings, frameless glass seals, spider fixings and articulated fixing bolts, including blast enhanced bolts for point fixed glass facades.
