Every yacht and tender requires railings and handrails – regardless of its size and specification. But the railings don’t all have to look the same. Using shaped metal tube that deviates from standard round tubing is a subtle way to enhance the overall design.

We know how carefully considered the aesthetics of luxury craft are, with designers and architects often seeking a seamless transition between the exterior decks and the interior of each yacht. Our elegant shaped tubing can help to create this stylistic flow between different parts of the craft, because it looks good both inside and out.

Our shaped railings are also safer than round tube railings because they are easier to grip (when you grasp a round handrail you’re more prone to slipping). Similarly, oval tube boarding ladders are more comfortable to climb and offer better grip than round tube ladders.

Oval tube is our most popular tubing for marine use. It is used predominantly for onboard railings. Timeless offer a bending service for oval and flat-sided oval tubing which happens once we have shaped the tube, so that the tubes are ready for installation. We can create compound curves (curves that require two bends), sweeping curves or tight radius bends. Speak to us about the radius that we can achieve, as well as our other fabrication services.

D-shaped tube – our handrail tube – has a smooth top and flat section on the underside that allows water to flow off it, preventing water ingress, which means that it is easier to maintain. Its distinctive ridged design creates a flat and secure base, which fixes easily to bulwarks and balustrades.

Our twisted oval tube boasts attractive contours that catch the light beautifully, and make for stunning spindles on staircases.

If you have a piece of railing that has been scratched or dented and is in need of replacing or repairing, speak to us and we will advise you on what can be done.

For refits and repairs, we make stainless steel oval boat deck handrail and handles in a wide range of sizes and shapes (we can also source round stainless steel tubing if you want to replace your existing round railings with similar tube).

Our experienced team of fabricators are specialists in welding stainless steel railings for yachts, motorboats and tenders. We can also mend or polish boat parts such as ladders, gates, handrails, cleats, bollards, biminis and anchors.

Our comprehensive stainless steel polishing service includes scratch removal and re-graining. You might own an older boat that has handrails that you want to rejuvenate. We can give the metalwork a super mirror polish bring the boat back to its former brightness.

Our metal fabricators are trusted by several leading British and international boat-makers, who use Timeless to bend, weld and polish the tube railings once we have shaped them. These naval architects and designers can rely on the fact that our specialist team always achieve high-quality bends and exceptional finishes. Outsourcing these fabrication services to our team creates efficiency and cost-savings in this manufacture process.
