Residential Railings
Residential railings enhance the overall appearance and atmosphere of a home, adding safety, value, and aesthetics. Whether you are building, renovating or adding a deck, our in-house team creates and installs custom railings that suit your unique home, and lifestyle.
Adding value to your home
Railings are a relatively simple and cost-effective way to add value to a home’s interior or exterior, helping to pique the interest of buyers if you are looking to sell your property. Whether you are looking to enhance your home for your own benefit, or looking to sell, our dedicated and experienced team will work with you to design and install a railing that accentuates your property’s key features
Increasing the beauty of your home
Railings enhance the atmosphere of your home and property. By choosing the colours, designs and materials that suit your home and lifestyle you are able to customize your ideal railing.
Giving your home privacy
With a properly designed and installed railing , you can enhance and ensure the privacy of any deck, balcony or pool.
Protecting those you care about
Railings are necessary to help protect anyone who lives in or visits your home, and their primary purpose should be to increase safety. Safety benefits of railings include providing stability, balance and support to those on staircases, balconies or decks, helping to prevent falls, and creating peace of mind. At Park Rail, we ensure that all residential railings are properly installed and built to meet the necessary codes and regulations in your region.

Railing Styles
We offer a variety of railing styles and mounting options. See below for some of the options we have available, or call us today to start building your custom railing.
Frameless glass railings are aesthetically pleasing and modern. These railings are the perfect addition to a deck, pool or balcony that overlooks a stunning view you do not want to compromise. Frameless glass railings are also a great addition to interior designs, as they are easy to maintain and stylish.
A fascia-mounted railing is attached to the outside of a deck or balcony, as opposed to the surface. This style of mounting adds extra space to the area, and is aesthetically pleasing, as the attachments of the rails are hidden.
A top-mounted railing (also known as a surface mount) is attached to a concrete slab or a wooden deck.
Tinted glass railings are the perfect solution if you have a stunning view, and are seeking the modern and elegant appearance of a glass railing, but do not want to lose your privacy. When it comes to tinted glass, we have experience installing every colour under the rainbow! The most popular colours we see are shades of grey, blue, bronze and phased whites.
Picket railings are a classic and versatile railing option that is popular for interior and exterior spaces. Picket railings are durable, low-maintenance, and classy. They are highly customizable, and come in a variety of colours and designs.
Privacy, opaque, or frosted glass railings are a great solution if you are seeking the modern and elegant appearance of a glass railing, but do not want to lose your privacy. Opaque glass adds a unique look to your deck or balcony and can be created in a number of colours and patterns.
To finish a balcony or exterior area, an entrance gate can be installed for security, access and aesthetics. All our gates can be custom made to suit your unique space.
We offer custom railing designs to fit almost any application. Our custom solutions include posts that are shorter or longer than typical, varying products outside of glass or picket and also several thicknesses of top and bottom rail.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I see a sample of the product?
Simply contact us to see a sample of the product you are interested in.
How do I maintain my railing?
Aluminum railings require minimal care and maintenance. We recommend your railing be inspected and cleaned at least twice per year with a mild, non-abrasive soap and water, using a soft sponge.
What is the wind rating?
The glass has been wind load tested to 150mph.
Are tempered glass panels available for stair sections?
Yes, we offer 6” wide angled glass panels for stair railing that will work on most standard staircases.
What is the spacing between pickets?
Spacing between pickets is typically 3 7/8” as building codes typically ask for a space not exceeding 4”.
What heights are available?
There are two standard heights: 36” and 42”. Other heights are available at your request.
What colours are available?
Many customers opt for one of four standard colours: Polar White, Sandalwood, Tudor Brown, or Midnight Black. In addition to these standard colours, we also offer: Linen Cream, Almond, Wicker, Oyster Grey, Pebble Grey, Mocha, Slate Grey, Ansi 70 Grey, Ansi 49 Grey, Seal Beach Green and Rideau Brown. If you still can’t find the perfect colour for your railing system, we can custom colour match any desired colour!
What is powder coating?
Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is applied electrostatically and is then gelled and cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a “skin.” All of the powder that is applied at our locations is “Super Durable Polyester”. We use only highest quality of exterior grade powder coating formulated to exceed one of the toughest paint standards in the industry for weathering specifications ~ AAMA 2604.
What types of railing systems are available?
We offer a wide variety of aluminum railing systems to suit any project. We have picket and glass styles, as well as various top rail designs, which can be top or fascia mounted. You can mix and match to create the perfect look! Read more about our available residential styles and our commercial styles.
Are our railings environmentally friendly?
We are able to supply and install railings that are 100% recyclable.
Do we do custom work?
Yes! All our railings are fully customized. Simply select the style of railing, and colour you would like, and we are able to find a design scheme that works for you. We can also accommodate any height or unique angle requirements.
What kind of glass do we use?
We are proud to use locally sourced 6mm tempered glass in all standard balcony-railing settings. Colours and various custom tints are often introduced and we can increase the thickness of the glass up to 10mm depending on the project at hand. Available colours include shades of grey, blue, bronze, phased whites and more.
What is a bypass system?
Often times our clients are looking for a custom solution for their project. A bypass or fascia mounted system extends down past the framing of the residential deck or commercial slab. This provides a unique look for our clients.
What is the warranty associated with our railings?
We offer a one-year materials and labour warranty on all services and products.
