Railing Styles

When we talk railing "style", this usually refers to the general structure and infill method of a railing system, like aluminum balusters, glass panels, or stainless steel cables. You can use any brand of railing with your decking and fascia choice, the style is completely up to you.

Railing Brands

Each railing brand will often make more than one family of railings, so "Dekpro railing" would refer to all the styles made by Dekpro, including aluminum balusters, glass strips, and cable railing.

When looking at similar railing style across different brands, there are subtle differences that are worth considering. Powder coating texture, available colors, post sizes, and ease of installation are factors that vary no matter the style of rail.

Aluminum railings also vary by top rail profile, baluster profile, post size and style, and bracketry.

On cable railings, you'll notice differences between the max post span, fitting styles and how they connect to posts, and also the top railing and whether or not it is continuous over posts.

Composite rails are known for their robust look, but you will still notice differences in component sizes, colors, construction, and even slight material differences between brands.

Different brands of rod railings have the usual differences of colors, post styles, and top rail profiles, but you'll also notice differences in the construction and assembly.
