Banker Wire's S-15 flat woven wire mesh allows sunlight to filter throughout this space.

A 10,700 square foot, two-story retail building in Mequon, Wisconsin, housing a PNC Bank, was outfitted with Banker Wire's S-15 flat wire woven mesh and Versatile Spine frame. The panels were designed with the Versatile Spine to be similar to 1/2" glass, this allowed the use of standard glass clips to be used in the mounting.

The PNC Bank building handrails were an exciting example of modern architectural design with their wire mesh. Such kinds of meshes serve not only the function of safety but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of a place. Fine detailing in the wire mesh makes up an exciting pattern that provides visual appeal to the handrails with sleek, contemporary lines, making it one of the prime points of interest of interior designs in the building.

But the wire mesh in the handrails does more than simply provide an aesthetic. The sturdy barrier keeps a person safe while using the stairs and, at the same time, keeps light and air circulating. This is what makes it glowingly stand out as an example of innovative use of materials in modern architecture. This mesh transparency is very instrumental in keeping the area still light, hence making it more inviting and comfortable to be in.

The employment of wire mesh for handrails shows concern not only with style but also with durability. The mesh itself is made from first-class materials, which can easily endure continuous usage without losing any of its beauty. Such a fusion of practicality and elegance in the wire mesh handrails makes them a striking feature of the PNC Bank building, reflecting how great design can take both safety and aesthetic appeal to new levels.

 
The decorative mesh S-15 used as railing infill in this PNC Bank allows for ample amounts of light to enter the lobby. Standard glass clips were used in the mounting of this S-15 architectural mesh and Versatile Spine frame.
