Our systems are engineered for maximum post spacing of 5′.

The current model building codes require that the top rail of a guard be able to resist a 200 pound point load for residential applications as well as a 50 plf uniform load for commercial applications. Our railing systems are designed to meet these and all other code requirements.

A general code requirement is that a handrail is required on at least one side of a continuous run of 4 or more steps. The building code in your area may have different or additional requirements. It is recommended that you check with the local building code office to determine what codes apply to your project.

While you can certainly re-paint powder-coated railings by properly preparing them to accept the new paint, we do not recommend it as it will void the warranty.

No, tempered glass cannot be cut after the tempering process. To help you measure and order the correct glass panels for your project see How to Measure for Glass Panels. If your project includes stairs, also see How to Measure for Angled Stair Glass Panels.
