Railing company in Oakville for glass, aluminum and stainless railings

We measure, fabricate and install railings for homes across the GTA, with the same crew from the first visit to the final walk-through.

  • 12 mm tempered glass
  • 100 mm max opening
  • 1.0 kN guard load
  • OBC Part 9 heights

Free on-site measure, in every city we serve

We come out, measure the real stairs, deck or entry and talk through the options at no cost. If you send photos first, you also get a same-day ballpark.

You approve a drawing before anything is cut

Every job starts with a dimensioned drawing that shows heights, spacing and finishes. If something looks wrong on paper, it gets fixed on paper.

One crew, from measure to install

Whoever measures your job is who installs it. You never explain the project twice or chase a subcontractor.

What we build

What our railing company in Oakville builds

Eleven kinds of work, all measured, built and installed by our own crew.

Frameless glass guard with a black handrail on front steps

Frameless glass railings

Clear 12 mm tempered panels held at the base, with no posts or pickets in the way. It’s the cleanest way to keep a view open.

Framed glass railing with a black top rail on a deck

Framed glass railings

Glass panels set in a powder-coated aluminum frame, with a top rail you can lean on. A good fit for decks, balconies and busy family spaces.

Black aluminum picket guards at a front entry

Aluminum picket railings

Pickets welded in our shop and powder-coated, built to the measured length of your porch or deck. There’s no repainting every few summers.

Stainless handrail fixed to glass panels on front steps

Stainless steel handrails

Round 316 stainless rails, polished or brushed, for stairs, entries and walls. They pair well with glass and hold their finish outdoors.

Aluminum porch columns and railing finished in the same colour

Columns for porches and entries

Columns finished to match your railing, so the whole entry reads as one piece. We measure and install them with the rest of the job.

Black handrail turning down the steps of a custom glass entry

Custom fabrication

Curves, stepped panels, odd angles and one-off details, drawn first and built to measure. If a standard system doesn’t fit, we make one that does.

Raised rear deck with a new black aluminum railing

Replacing old railings

We take out wobbly, rusted or dated railings and put in a new system sized to your existing stairs or deck. Most front entries are done in a day.

Composite deck with frameless glass guards seen from above

Deck railings

Glass, framed glass or aluminum, fixed to the deck structure at the guard heights the code asks for. We check the framing during the measure.

Wide deck stairs with glass guards and step lighting

Stair railings

Guards and handrails for front steps, outdoor stairs and interior staircases. Stepped glass panels and stair lighting are both options.

Glass railing on a rooftop terrace of a commercial building

Commercial projects

Railings for condos, offices, rooftops and multi-unit buildings, quoted and drawn the same way as a home. You get one crew and one point of contact for the whole job.

Glass railing with black posts around a pool deck

Glass pool fencing

Glass enclosures that keep the pool safe and still in view from the house. Gates are self-closing and latching, as pool by-laws require.

About us

Railings are all we do

We don’t build decks or do landscaping. Every job gets a crew that does one trade and does it properly.

As a railing company in Oakville, we fabricate to your measurements in our shop. Posts line up, panels fit and nothing gets trimmed on site to make it work.

We also say no when something is wrong. If an old deck can’t hold new posts, or a layout won’t pass code, you hear it at the measure and not after the install.

How it works

How a job runs, from free quote to walk-through

Five steps, the same on every job, whether it’s a front step or a full deck.

  1. 01

    1. Site measure

    We come to your home and measure the actual stairs, deck or entry, free of charge. The written quote comes from real numbers, not a photo and a guess.

  2. 02

    2. Drawing and free quote

    You get a dimensioned drawing and a written, itemised quote for glass, posts, hardware and installation. Nothing is cut until you approve it.

  3. 03

    3. Fabrication

    We build the railing to the measured dimensions, so nothing gets trimmed to fit on site. Aluminum pickets are welded in the shop and powder-coated.

  4. 04

    4. Installation

    The same crew that measured your job installs it, usually in one day at a front entry and two to three days on a deck. We work through the winter, too.

  5. 05

    5. Walk-through

    We walk the finished railing with you and check every post, panel and fastener. Your written workmanship warranty comes with the final invoice.

Questions

Before you call: common questions

How fast can a railing company in Oakville give me a quote?

You can get a same-day ballpark if you send photos of the stairs, deck or entry. The written, itemised quote follows the free on-site measure, with glass, posts, hardware and installation listed line by line.

Does the railing contractor who measures also do the install?

Yes, the same crew measures your job and installs it. Nothing gets handed to a subcontractor between the quote and the walk-through.

How long does a new railing take?

A front entry is usually installed about two weeks after you approve the drawing. A full deck takes three to five weeks, depending on glass lead time and finish colour, and the install itself takes one to three days.

Can you install railings in winter?

Yes, we install through the winter. Cold weather doesn’t have to push your project to spring.

Will my railing pass the building code in Ontario?

Yes, every guard and handrail we install is built to Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code. That means 900 or 1070 mm guard heights, no opening over 100 mm and a 1.0 kN guard load.

Do you install railings near me in Toronto, York or Durham?

Yes, we work across the Greater Toronto Area, from Burlington to Clarington. The free on-site measure applies in every city we serve.
