Residential

Slim Aluminum Rails

1 MIN READ

Fairway Architectural Railing Solutions (formerly known as Fairway Building Products) has added a matte white aluminum railing finish to its A210 slimline aluminum railing lineup. The railings also come in textured bronze and textured black, in 6- and 8-foot lengths, and in two heights—36 inches for residential projects and 42 inches for commercial ones. Eight-foot kits are available for stairs. The railings are AAMA- 2604-05 compliant and meet 2015 IBC, ASTM E935 standards and ASTM e985 standards, and can be outfitted with LED lighting if desired. Top and bottom rails are cut to length on site; once balusters are inserted, the assembly is attached to surface-mounted posts with brackets. Screw heads are hidden by aluminum caps. A 6-foot-long, 36-inch-tall railing section is $177; an 8-foot section, $236. Hardware and posts are extra. Fairway Architectural Railing Solutions
