Deck and Step Railing on a Blue-Gray Home
Project Overview
Black railing installed around a composite deck and down its steps at a blue-gray sided home with white trim and a brick-edged stair.
Analysis
The deck sits on piers above the lawn with a drop at the stair, so the guard was laid out around the perimeter and pitched on the stairs in one continuous run.
Process
Measure, fabrication, powder coat, one-day install, and final alignment.
Outcome
A crisp black guard that frames the composite deck and keeps the stair run safe.
