Mirror Systems<br />
A High Quality Dance & Gym Mirror System<br />
Providing additional protection when you need it<br />
Additional protection is required to avoid damage or injury from body impact when studios are also used for high activity<br />
sports, Image 18 fulfils these requirements, while still providing the same great polished finish and continuous reflection.<br />
The addition of a 12mm, closed cell polystyrene panel behind the mirror panel provides cushioning, helping to absorb impact<br />
and protect from breakage, Class A safety backing is also applied, providing the highest safety level available.<br />
The Image 18 system also has a greater tolerance for wall deviations and can overcome issues other systems can’t.<br />

Ballet Barres<br />
Our ballet barres are designed so that they can either be<br />
installed with our Image mirror systems, or as a stand-alone<br />
product. In either scenario our ballet barres are perfect for<br />
any dance studio, gym, fitness suite or home gym.<br />
Single tier barres<br />
Manufactured from 50mm diameter<br />
beech barre as standard, finished with<br />
a hard-wearing clear lacquer, the barres<br />
can be fixed to beech backing board or<br />
directly to the wall. Brackets are available<br />
with a powder coated finish or polished<br />
stainless steel.<br />
Our barres are also available in ash, oak<br />
or maple as alternatives to beech, and<br />
can be supplied with a coloured lacquer<br />
finish, should you wish to match your<br />
colour scheme.<br />
Double tier barres<br />
Double tier barres accommodate a<br />
variety of age groups and student<br />
heights, providing optimal support for<br />
the student.<br />
We manufacture our brackets with a<br />
standard height difference of 150mm<br />
between the barres, as per Royal Ballet<br />
recommendations, however, as with<br />
all of our products, we can manufacture<br />
to your specific requirements.<br />
Click here for more information ><br />
Floor mounted barres<br />
Floor mounted brackets enable<br />
installations where wall fixed barres<br />
are not an option. Unless pattressed,<br />
stud partitioning does not provide<br />
adequate support for wall mounted<br />
barres, in these situations we<br />
recommend floor mounted barres<br />
for permanent installations.<br />
Installed using powder coated steel<br />
brackets, securely fixed to the sub<br />
floor in your studio, and our standard<br />
beech ballet barre. The barres are<br />
manufactured in-house to suit your<br />
requirements, with options for<br />
either single or double tier barre<br />
and available in any colour to match<br />
your studio.<br />

Ballet Barres<br />
Adaptable wall fixed barres<br />
Our solutions for multi-purpose studios, where barres need to be made less<br />
intrusive when not in use<br />
Adjustable Barres<br />
Our adjustable barres can be set to the junior and senior<br />
heights, but also has a lock-up or lock-down position, holding<br />
the barre close to the wall, reducing the chance of injury for<br />
people doing high activity sports.<br />
Supplied in a maximum barre length of 3000mm, this system<br />
can be quickly and easily adjusted by one person. Once again,<br />
these barres and brackets are designed in-house and can be<br />
manufactured to your requirements should our standard sizes<br />
not meet your needs.<br />
Removable Barres<br />
Our removable barre system allows the complete removal of<br />
the barre, which can then be stored out of the way when not<br />
in use. Using our in-house designed socket system, the barres<br />
can be used in conjunction with our Image 18 or Image 6 mirror<br />
systems or as a barre only installation. When installed on their<br />
own, the wall sockets sit flush with a beech backing board<br />
removing any obstacles along the length of the installation.<br />
This system is supplied in 1500mm lengths, so they can be<br />
easily installed and removed by one person.<br />
