Indoor & Outdoor Railings
S.T.A.R. aluminum railing posts are made with T6 grade aluminum alloy and heavy-duty .025” wall thickness with interior I-gussets.
Our standard S.T.A.R. picket and glass railing systems include our “CLASSIC SERIES” for a contemporary look featuring a continuous uninterrupted top rail design and our “COLONIAL SERIES” featuring a more traditional look with railing running between railing newel posts. We also are capable of designing custom railing to suit your project needs. We have a unique stair railing system offered with pickets or glass.
Our standard rail heights are available in both 36″ & 42″ rail heights. Custom heights are also available upon request for an additional charge.
Railings are constructed from sturdy marine grade aluminum 6005 or 6061 alloys and then color coated with our powder coated finish.
The heavy duty sturdy construction of our engineered railing system meets rigid North American Residential and Commercial building code. The system is capable of meeting 2009 IBC (International Building Code) and NBC (National Building Code of Canada).
The standard attachment method is to “surface mount” the railing by mechanically fastening the post base plate into the decking substrate below. Alternative attachments such method such as “fascia mounted” by attaching the post to the exterior face of the structures rim joist or “core mounting” into concrete substrates are also available. Consult your S.T.A.R. dealer for additional information on these and other alternative mounting details available.
Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a “skin”. The powder may be a thermoplastic or a thermoset polymer. It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is mainly used for coating of metals, such as aluminum extrusions, such as architectural building materials (guardrails) automobile and bicycle parts.
