A Deck Railing Upgrade: From Wood to Aluminum
The homeowner of this beautiful deck and pergola combination reached out looking to upgrade her deck railing. She had recently had the 20 year old wood decking replaced with composite decking, and wanted to know if we could retrofit a metal railing system to her current deck, incorporating the existing structural pergola posts . She was hoping to completely eliminate the need for yearly re-staining with a zero maintenance replacement. After presenting her with samples of potential options, she decided to proceed with our recommendation of Preferred Aluminum Railing in Black. To achieve a more cohesive look, we special ordered wider railing posts to match the width of the pergola posts.
