The importance of handrails
Handrails are important in creating a safe environment and maintaining your peace of mind. Anyone can be at risk of falling, not just children, the elderly or people who are physically challenged. In bad weather or unsafe conditions, handrails are even more important.
Handrails can help protect you from liability in an accident. If you’re lacking handrails in a place that should have them, you could find yourself at fault. If your handrails are improperly installed, for example, they aren’t mounted correctly or they aren’t at the right height, you may be liable. You need experts who understand safety standards to protect you.
Handrails are equally important to put on the edge of patios, decks, balconies, and other elevated surfaces. Anywhere you might need a barrier to prevent falling. Having a barrier provides comfort and peace of mind for you, your family, and your guests.
Meeting handrail code regulations
If you are a homeowner or business owner, you may be required to install railings in order to comply with local codes. Handrails also protect business owners from liability should an injury occur. We are knowledgeable about the local codes and regulations, and our Long® Fence professionals can build any railing or handrail to fit code specifications and regulations. Contact us today to find out what kind of rail you may need to comply with local residential regulations. As a fence company, regulations are not difficult for us.

Aluminum Railings
Aluminum railings are a rust-free, minimal-maintenance alternative to iron. The material is light, strong, and resilient to rain, sun, and ice. They are available in black and white, with other colors optional. Like iron handrails, architectural elements can be added to give the railing more of a distinct personality.

When it comes to installing a handrail, there are many variations available. Long® Iron offers custom fabricated iron handrails, aluminum handrails, and vinyl handrails that can meet local code and requirements.
Iron handrails are a popular choice. All Long® Fence iron handrails are coated in polyester powder to provide a durable and long-lasting finish. Custom colors and architectural elements can also be added to an iron handrail to make sure it matches the style of the property.
