Our Elan Balcony system is engineered for maximum site efficiency. By using concealed fixings and structural adhesives instead of welding, we eliminate the need for hot works permits, reducing on-site hazards and significantly speeding up the installation timeline.
Constructed from high-grade 6063 T4 & T6 aluminium alloy, the Elan Balcony is built to withstand the elements. We offer specialised Polyester powder coatings in neaco curated finishes to ensure long-lasting visual appeal in any climate. We even offer a premium service to perfectly match your balcony to your projects custom RAL colour.
Fully compliant with BS 6180:2011 and fire-rated to A2-s1, d0, the Elan system is built to handle horizontal loads up to 1.5kN/m, ensuring robust durability and peace of mind for high-specification developments.
The Elan system supports green building initiatives and BREEAM ratings. It is 100% recyclable and manufactured using 77% recycled material, making it an environmentally responsible choice for modern developments.
The construction of the Elan Balcony system is defined by a precision-engineered approach that prioritizes structural integrity and rapid on-site assembly. The process begins with the fabrication of components from high-strength 6063 T4 & T6 aluminium alloy, which are machined to accommodate a modular, “zero hot works” installation. By utilizing a sophisticated combination of concealed mechanical fixings and high-performance structural adhesives instead of traditional welding, the system can be fully installed without the need for hot works permits, significantly reducing fire risk and site downtime.
For structural integration, the Elan balustrade is seated within a subtle floor channel fixed directly to the balcony structure, with 50mm stanchions secured through either base grout or grout-fixed methods. This ensures the system can comfortably meet horizontal imposed loads ranging from 0.36kN/m to 1.5kN/m.
The 10mm toughened safety glass panels are then securely encapsulated at both the top and bottom by the oval toprail and floor channel, while in-line stem connectors maintain a perfectly flush alignment between the glass and the handrail.
To finish the process, every aluminium component is treated with a durable Polyester powder coating, ensuring that the entire assembly is protected against the elements and meets the required A2-s1, d0 fire safety classification immediately upon completion.
FlowDek is a brand-new neaco exclusive aluminium planking system featuring high-capacity integrated drainage, engineered to ship as a standard component with all our balcony solutions. By combining flooring and drainage into a single, low-profile unit, FlowDek removes the need for complex sub-structures, allowing for a faster, cleaner installation.
Hidden channels efficiently manage water runoff, keeping the balcony surface clear and protected.
Crafted from high-grade aluminium to provide a rock-solid, non-combustible walking surface.
Designed specifically to sit flush with our Vision Structural Glass tracks, creating a level, threshold-free transition from indoor to outdoor.
Slip-resistant and weather-proof, FlowDek is built to withstand the elements without warping, rotting, or fading.
Traditionally, balconies require separate decking and drainage layers, adding height and complexity. FlowDek simplifies the architectural profile by integrating these elements into a slimline aluminium plank. This not only enhances the “floating” cantilevered look of your balcony but also ensures the entire system remains maintenance-free and fire-safe.
