## Railing Types We Install

### Wood Railings

Classic and budget-friendly. Cedar, pressure-treated, and hardwood options that match traditional decks and porches. We build them straight, solid, and sealed.

### Composite Railings

Low-maintenance and color-matched to composite decking from TimberTech, Trex, and Fiberon. No staining, no splintering — just an occasional wash.

### Aluminum / Metal Railings

Slim profiles, powder-coated finishes, and excellent strength-to-weight. A great choice when you want durability with minimal visual bulk.

### Glass Railings

Tempered glass panels for unobstructed views and a clean, modern look — framed or frameless, sized to your sightlines.

### Cable / Wire Railings

Stainless cable infill keeps the view open while meeting code spacing. Properly tensioned so it stays taut for years.

### Mixed-Material &amp; Custom Designs

Wood posts with cable infill, metal frames with glass, composite top rails — we build custom combinations to match your home and how you use the space.

## Why Homeowners Choose Us for Railings

- **Code-compliant, always.** Proper height, baluster/cable spacing, and load-rated mounting — inspected and done right.
- **Solid mounting.** Posts and brackets anchored to structure, not just surface-fastened — no wobble.
- **One crew, one warranty.** The team that starts the job finishes it, with a written workmanship warranty.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What railing height does code require?

For most residential decks in Illinois, guardrails must be at least 36 inches high, with baluster or cable spacing that won't pass a 4-inch sphere. We build to current local code and handle inspection.

### Which railing material is lowest maintenance?

Composite, aluminum, and glass are the lowest-maintenance options — typically just a wash. Wood looks great but needs periodic sealing.

### Can you match railings to my existing deck?

Yes. We color- and material-match composite and wood, and we can mix materials (e.g., wood posts with cable infill) to fit your home's style.

### Do cable railings really stay tight?

When installed correctly — properly spaced posts and tensioned terminals — yes. Sagging cable is an install problem, not a product problem.

### Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Osnova Construction is fully licensed in Illinois and carries general liability and workers' comp insurance. Certificates available on request.
