Tree grille and guard

Protects the tree, holds the pavement, and does not become a trip hazard.

A grille that carries pedestrian load flush with the pavement, in segments that come out for root inspection, with an opening that can be enlarged as the trunk grows. The guard suits it, because a mismatched pair looks like two decisions.

Compliance and detail

What we will confirm in writing.

Grille apertures detailed so they do not create a trip or heel trap, and reviewed against AS 1428.1 slip and gap provisions.

Australian Standards move, and the version that matters is the one current on the day your project is certified. We check the specific clause against the current standard for every order rather than repeating a claim from a brochure.
