If you misjudge a step or you may be a person that easily loses your balance, clinging to the railing could save you some bumps and bruises or something worse. Railings provide stability, which is important for young children to adults to the elderly. Most people just lightly touch the railing with a hand just to know that it is there and can easily be grabbed if you were to stumble.

Railings on decks and ledges prevent falls from a few feet to several stories. They provide a much-needed barrier for wandering children, pets and adults who may need something to lean on when enjoying a cookout or party.

During bad weather, floor surfaces can become slippery and dangerous. Railings provide support from falling on the wet or snowy surfaces. Also railings on your deck or balcony can prevent items from flying away during a windy day.

Another great reason for railings on stairs is to have something to hold when carrying something. The load doesn't have to be heavy, it can be awkward to hold and having that railing to balance yourself can save you and whatever your cargo may be.

Wooden railings are so much work for the consumer. You have to protect them from pests that would love to make a home inside the wooden railing or just eat their way through the railing. Wooden railings have to be treated and retreated for the weather. They also do not last as long at steel and will cost much more in the long run.

Steel railings are more durable to the weather and there's no way any pests are going to borrow inside or eat their way through them. Steel railings will last a lifetime and more.

Steel railings are beautiful too. Whether you just have a couple steps leading to your front door or an upstairs balcony or deck, steel railings come in a variety for styles and colors that will make your railings stand out for their beauty.

From homes to churches to apartment buildings to businesses, steel railings can add beauty and safety to your steps, flight of stairs, balcony, deck or ramp.

Railings just make it easier and safer to get around on your porches and steps. Add beauty and safety by replacing those old, rotten wood handrails with ornamental steel decorative railings.
