Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Toronto homeowners and builders.
How much do aluminum railings cost in Toronto?
Aluminum picket railings typically run $70–$85 per linear foot installed. Glass railings start around $75–$105/ft. Exact pricing depends on height, finish, and complexity. We provide free, no-obligation quotes within 24 hours.
Are glass railings safe?
Yes. We use 10mm or 12mm tempered safety glass (and laminated glass where required) that meets or exceeds Ontario Building Code (SB-13) requirements. It is designed to withstand impact and heavy loads.
How long does railing installation take?
Most residential installations are completed in 1–2 days. Fabrication lead times are typically 2–3 weeks from measurement to install, but we offer expedited options for urgent projects.
Do your railings meet Ontario Building Code?
Absolutely. All our systems—aluminum, glass, and connections—are engineered to meet Ontario Building Code standards. Railings on decks and balconies above 600mm require guards of at least 1,070mm (42"). We ensure full compliance on every project.
Glass vs aluminum railings — which is better?
It depends on your priorities. Glass gives unobstructed views and a modern look, ideal for decks overlooking landscaping or water. Aluminum picket is more affordable, offers traditional aesthetic options, and is slightly easier to repair. Many of our clients combine both — aluminum posts with glass insert panels.
Do I need a permit for new railings in Ontario?
In most cases, a building permit is not required for replacing railings on an existing structure, but it depends on your municipality. New decks or elevated structures may require permits. We handle the specs and can advise you during your free consultation.
What is the Ontario building code height for railings?
Guards (railings) must be at least 1,070mm (42") high on decks, balconies, and porches that are more than 600mm above grade. Stair handrails must be between 865mm and 965mm. Our systems are designed to meet these requirements by default.
How do I maintain aluminum railings?
Virtually no maintenance is needed. Our powder-coated aluminum railings resist rust, fading, and chipping. An occasional rinse with a garden hose is all it takes. Unlike wood railings, you will never need to paint, stain, or sand them.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. All our installations come with a manufacturer warranty on materials and a workmanship guarantee. Specific warranty terms depend on the product line — we'll go over everything before you sign.
What areas do you serve in the GTA?
We serve the entire Greater Toronto Area including Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, Oakville, Burlington, Brampton, Markham, Richmond Hill, Pickering, and surrounding cities. Our factory is in Vaughan, so we can offer competitive pricing across the GTA.
