Metal Railing FAQs

01
What is metal railing great for?

Metal railings are perfect for adding a contemporary edge to any outdoor space. With various infill options, they can blend seamlessly into the background, allowing the views beyond the deck to take focus. Strong and sleek, metal railings are an excellent choice for a modern, subtle look.

02
Which of your railings can be used in a commercial application?

We recommend that you check with your local Building Department Official but Trex Signature aluminum railings meet IBC Code 1607.8 for handrails, as reported in the Evaluation document here.

03
Will metal railing rust?

Aluminum is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, making it a great choice for any outdoor setting. Steel railings, on the other hand, are more prone to rust in moisture-rich environments, so they’re typically best suited for arid climates.

04
Which is better composite or aluminum railings?

Aluminum and composite railings are both excellent low-maintenance choices for your deck. Composite railings bring a traditional look, while aluminum railings offer a sleek, modern style. Both options are versatile. For example, Trex Transcend railings come in four colors, with mix-and-match baluster choices—square composite or round aluminum. Trex Signature aluminum railings provide even more variety, including round or square balusters, horizontal rods, glass, or mesh infill.

05
How do metal railings compare to other railing materials?

Trex metal railings offer the same low-maintenance durability as other Trex options, with the added benefit of a sleek, modern look. They’re reliable, long-lasting, and ideal for adding a contemporary touch to any outdoor space.
