A simple deck provides enough space to relax and cook out, but it won’t fulfill all of your needs. If you have a raised deck or want an enclosed space for pets and children, consider installing deck railings. A railing system adds some height and visual interest to your decks.
Ask Deck Experts to connect you with a local deck railing installer who can help you out. You’ll find that there are a surprising number of options when adding these deck accessories to your property.
Materials Used in Deck Railings
At Deck Experts, our network members work primarily with TimberTech products. You can find railings in two deck materials through this brand:
- Aluminum: A resilient metal, aluminum provides extra support while also resisting corrosion.
- Composite Materials: As the same composite material that’s used in TimberTech decking, this option is low-maintenance and attractive.
If your local contractor is willing to source other materials, you can usually find plastic, iron, and wood railings too.
Beautiful Infills for Your Railings
During a deck railing installation, you can also pick the type of infill for your new railing. The infill is the section of a railing that’s between the top and bottom rails. Most traditional railing systems feature vertical balusters. Made from aluminum or composite materials, TimberTech balusters are usually round or square.
However, you can have deck railing contractors install something a little different on your outdoor living space. Consider:
- Horizontal Cable Rails
- Hanging Ropes
- Solid Glass Channels
- Wire Mesh
Not all of these deck style options are available through TimberTech. If you want a look that isn’t available through this brand, you may be able to source something different through your local deck railing installers.
