Modern Aluminum Rail

Available in 6- and 8-foot lengths and 36- and 42-inch heights in both level and stair-rail versions, Deckorators Aluminum Rapid Rail kits have a matte black, powder-coated finish that resists scratches and corrosion, according to the manufacturer. Each kit includes drop-through square balusters, two-piece base and cap rails, brackets, hardware, and installation templates. Post kits—2 1/2 inches and 4 inches—matching gates, and continuous top rail brackets are sold separately. We found a kit for a 6-foot-by-36‑inch rail section for $150 online. deckorators.com
