Deck Railing Options to Elevate Your Outdoor Space

Railing is a complementary feature to complete your backyard decking project. There are multiple ways to create a personalized aesthetic to match the look and feel of your home.

Whether your goal is to maintain a beautiful landscape view or simply elevate your backyard’s appearance, there is a deck railing solution for you.

Cable Railing

Cable railing is one of the most attractive options, allowing homeowners to simultaneously modernize their deck and preserve their scenic view.

Atlantis Rail Systems

A favorite among contractors due to its grab-and-go nature, Atlantic Cable Railing is versatile and easy to install. It comes in two thickness sizes and various styles which can be specially ordered.

With this type of deck railing, adding a hardwood top rail to match your decking is a popular choice. Plus, J&W Lumber stocks cable railing systems with pre-drilled posts, making it easy for customers and contractors to get their projects underway.

Here are the products to choose from:

● Rail Easy™ – Corrosion-resistant stainless steel tensioners and cable
● Rail Easy Spectrum™ – Pre-drilled metal rail posts used for top railings, corners, ends, and mid-posts
● HandiSwage™ – Durable and economical ⅛” cable components
● Sunrail Latitude™ – Stainless steel round posts with the availability of a top rail mounting plate for a wood handrail
● Sunrail Nautilus™ – Stainless steel railing and posts available polished or brushed

Aluminum Railing

When it comes to metal railing, J&W Lumber carries the Excalibur™ Wrought Iron Railing System, as well as the Avalon™ Aluminum Railing System, both by RDI Metal Works. While both are functional, durable, and stylish, Trex’s aluminum railing options continue to be the most sought after.
