The Alumina Railing Advantage

PRODUCT PRESENTATION

Design Excellence
Alumina Railing Products manufactures aluminum railing systems for commercial, industrial and residential projects.

Our railing is the most stylish, durable and easiest to install system on the market today.

Those who choose a stylish appearance without the expensive manufacturing costs of painted metal or wood, choose Alumina Railing Products for their design solutions. Our railing system is excellent for motels, hotels, homes, condominiums, apartments, swimming pools and commercial buildings.

We offer a Traditional Style rail with fluted top cap and thin pickets and a Contemporary Style rail with a larger top cap and heavier pickets.

Superior Construction Features
The Alumina Railing System provides a secure, maintenance free and aesthetically pleasant appearance through our own classic design. Alumina’s fabricated railing system conceals all fasteners of the railing construction providing the appealing seamless design. And the fluted posts and cap provide our classic look.

The Alumina Railing System has a polyester baked on powder coat finish, that retains the “new appearance” for years compared to enamel finishes that deteriorate over time.

Custom Fabrication
Our railing is custom fabricated in our plant to fit your design and specified project needs. We offer a variety of top cap, picket and post styles in your choice of selected standard and special order colors.

Alumina can custom build your aluminum railing from heights of 10” to 60” and pool railings up to 72”. We deliver to your project site anywhere in the United States.
