Where we install railings
Railings have to fit the structure they are bolted to, so each one is measured where it will go.
- Front porch steps and landings
- Interior and exterior stairs
- Balconies and second-floor walkways
- Ramps and steps at businesses
- Replacing wobbly wood or rusted metal rails
Styles and materials
Simple square picket rails suit most homes. Older Fort Worth houses often look best with a more traditional pattern. We can match rail you already have on another part of the house, or build something new from a photo you like.
Texas heat and rain are hard on outdoor rail, so the finish matters as much as the steel.
Safety comes first
Building codes set rules for railing height, the gaps between pickets, and how much force a rail must hold. Rules change by use and by city. A rail for a porch and a rail for a business can differ, so we check what applies to your job. Solid anchoring matters most, because even a strong rail fails if the concrete or wood it is fastened to has gone bad. If we see that, we will tell you first. Then you can decide how to fix it before a new rail goes on top of it.
What affects the price
Railings are priced by the job. Your written quote lists what is included.
- Total length of rail and number of turns
- Straight run or stairs, since angles take more fitting
- Plain pickets or a decorative pattern
- What it mounts to: concrete, brick, or wood
- Repair of the surface underneath
- Removing the old railing
Common questions
Can you fix a railing that wobbles?
Most of the time, yes. A wobble usually comes from a broken weld or a loose anchor. Send a short video of it moving and we can often tell you what it needs.
Can you match the railing on the rest of my house?
Send one photo of the whole rail and one close up. We can copy most patterns and will tell you if a piece is hard to match before you decide.
Do you do railings for commercial buildings?
Yes. We also work as a subcontractor for general contractors. Send your plans or specs with the quote request.
