Bowie Bridges
The continuous fencing system of criss-crossed balusters, uninterrupted by posts, creates a fascinating image. The round stainless steel bars have alternating diameters (max. 30 mm), which results in a robust and rigid fence.
This fencing was specifically designed to prevent the possibility of users getting stuck between the balusters. If desired, the baluster pattern can be made denser in order to meet the most stringent safety standards. The Bowie Bridge is available in a slightly arched or flat version. The bridge’s maximum, uniformly distributed load-bearing capacity is 5 kN/m² (EU) - 90lbs/ft² (US) - 85 lbs/ft² (CA).
Bowie Bridges are available in a Corten or powder coated steel version in which the round balusters are replaced by Corten steel strips. A robust rounded handrail of hardwood sets off the fencing and is pleasant to the touch. A linear LED lighting line can be included in the fencing system. It is fully integrated in the handrail.

The Bridge Process
In the Bridge Process, Streetlife makes use of a six-step plan: from idea to realization. The diagram shows how Streetlife can assist you by providing the appropriate information at each stage of your layout plan. Short delivery times are possible; average 12-14 weeks after approval of the drawings by the client. Our bridges are delivered almost entirely in prefab state, so that installation usually requires only a few days. Experience has indicated that the delivery time depends more on the decision-making process than it does on the actual manufacturing process.
