DesignRail® Aluminum Posts

Posts are made from 2-3/8" square tube extrusions in three distinct cross-sectional profiles: Standard, Commercial Base Mount, and Heavy Duty. Each is specially engineered to provide optimal structural strength and design performance for specific usage and load conditions. Our customer service team will determine which posts are required based on the type of project and the railing design options selected.

Posts for horizontal railings come pre-cut for 36", 38" and 42" railing heights. These posts also come pre-drilled for cables when using horizontal cable infill.

Pre-drilled stair posts are available for Base Mount, Stanchion Mount, and Fascia Mount configurations. These posts come in 3 standard railing heights; actual post height will vary from 44-in. to 60-in. depending on post height and mounting method selected. When using horizontal cable infill, these posts will come pre-drilled in three standard angle ranges: 23-28 degrees, 29-34 degrees, 35-39 degrees. Custom angles available at an extra charge.

Custom posts, and stair posts using Fascia Bracket mount, and other special conditions, including ramps, must be cut to height and drilled in the field. Extrusions can be ordered in 10-ft or 20-ft lengths for that purpose.

See post options and mounting options, below.

DesignRail® Top Rails

Top Rails come in 6 styles and are sold in 10 and 20 foot lengths that can be trimmed to size in the field.

Square Top Rails (Series 150) and Graspable Top Rails (Series 100) are attached to the faces of the posts using Rail Connecting Blocks (RCBs).

Rectangular, Round, Elliptical, and Low-Profile Top Rails (Series 200, 300, 350 & 450) rest on the tops of the posts and are secured with stainless steel screws. Hand Rails (see Additional Items) with extensions are available as an accessory item to meet ADA and code hand rail requirements.

DesignRail® In-fill

The basic infill options are illustrated below. However, we can also assist with custom infill such as textured, etched or decaled glass panels, special picket designs, or even wood strips or panels for solid barriers or fences—the Aluminum Railing System adapts.

All infill options require a Top Rail and Top Rail Insert. Bottom rails are recommended for 42-in high frames and may be used as an option on 36-in and 38-in frames using horizontal cable infill. These support the railing infill and help reinforce the frame structure. Bottom Rails connect to the posts using Rail Connecting Brackets (RCBs) and Top Rail Inserts snap into the underside of the Top Rails. Each infill type has a specific corresponding Bottom Rail and Top Rail Insert design. Bottom Rails and Top Rail Inserts are available in 10-ft and 20-ft lengths that can be cut to size in the field.
