Deck railings offer so much more than safety and security – they can also create a design statement that finishes the look of your deck. Low-maintenance, durable, and visually appealing railings are a must-have for any deck, which makes vinyl railing options from leading brands like Color Guard, or aluminum railings by Westbury, from Gerber Lumber, a go-to solution for completing your deck.

The Allure of Vinyl Railings

Vinyl railings offer several noteworthy benefits for deck construction. First and foremost, they offer a highly durable, low maintenance solution for your deck. Vinyl railings have incredible longevity. They don’t need to be painted, sanded, or sealed. Vinyl offers incredible resistance to warping, rotting, and insect damage to ensure your railings will look and perform great for many years.

Vinyl railings are also incredibly versatile. With so many styles, colors, and textures available, it’s easy to find a good match for your home and deck. Finally, vinyl railings meet or exceed safety codes, offering sturdy and reliable performance you can count on.

Aluminum Railings

For homeowners seeking enduring elegance, Gerber Lumber offers Westbury aluminum deck railings. Renowned for their classic designs and timeless appeal, Westbury railings are crafted with premium quality materials built to withstand the elements. A diverse selection of designs, colors, and textures ensures you can find the perfect match to elevate your outdoor space with a touch of sophistication.

Choosing Your Perfect Railing

How can you pick the right railing for your home? Aside from product quality, you should focus on the railing’s style and color. Your railing, either vinyl or aluminum, should complement the architecture of your home and deck. Similarly, the railing color should aim to create a harmonious look. Neutral railing colors (like white or black) are usually a safe bet.
