    How do I maintain my aluminum railing?

    We recommend checking and cleaning your aluminum railing once a year in normal environments. In more hazardous environments or if heavy soiling occurs, more regular cleaning may be required. To clean, wash the railing with a solution of warm water and mild detergent and rinse to remove all residues. The railing should be cleaned using a soft cloth or sponge. Test the cleaner in a small, inconspicuous area prior to applying it to the entire railing system to ensure that no color change or damage will occur.

    What is powder-coating?

    Powder-coating a dry finishing process using pigment and resin particles that melt into a durable finish. Ours is eco-friendly and super tough.

    Do I need special tools to install Deckorators railing?

    Conventional tools for cutting, drilling, and nailing can be used with Deckorators railing. We recommend using a sharp carbide-tipped saw blade for cutting. For your safety, remember to wear protective clothing and safety glasses. Reference the Railing tab on the Installation Instructions page for railing instructions specific to each product line.

    Are Deckorators aluminum railings still building code approved even if the post extension is added to it?

    Yes, the use of post extensions does not affect the compliance with building code as long as they are used according to our instructions. Please note that post extensions are not intended for use with shade sails or similar applications. For detailed installation guidelines, refer to our installation instructions page.
