Grind To A Halt Cylinder GrinderMinders

Cylinder GrinderMinders

The new Cylinder GrinderMinder is another version of our original spherical design. The “Cylinder“ will give a lower, flat profile and is inserted at a 90 degree angle into the stone or concrete, rather than at an angle. The stem of the “Cylinder“ is identical to our original GrinderMinder, so that it will provide the same stability and resistance to vandalism.

  • Solid Stainless Steel with a Black Oxide finish (soft, matte black appearance)

Grind To A Halt Handrail Minders

Handrail Minders

These skateboard deterrents are designed for either round or flat-topped handrails. They are made from aluminum and are specially coated with a paintable surface, if the customer wishes to match the deterrents to the handrail. They are supplied with self-drilling and threading stainless steel screws. The standard finish is silver, if left unpainted.

  • Round Handrail Minders – The standard size for round Handrail Minders will fit 1 5/8” O.D. handrails, but can be made in different sizes and materials according to customer specifications. They are 3” long and ½” thick at the deepest point.
  • Flat Handrail Minders – These pieces measure 2” x 3” and are ½” thick at the deepest point.
 

Important – Calculating the outside diameter measurement of your round handrail:

Accurately measuring the outside diameter (O.D.) of your round handrail is key to ordering the correct size Handrail Minder.  We match the inside diameter (I.D.) of our Handrail Minders to the O.D. of your handrail.  For instructions on measuring your handrail, click here.
