Stairs can be a great accent feature in homes. Framing the staircase with a railing can add character, functionality, and highlight the staircase in different ways. Choosing a new railing can be a daunting process, with so many choices available. How do you know which is the best railing for you? Here are some ways to choose a new railing for your home, from Prestige Railings & Stairs in Calgary.
Think about your style
Depending on the style of your home, or the new style you are looking to achieve, there are many different railings to choose from. Determining the look you are searching for it the first step in your choice. Perhaps you need something sturdy, or flashy, or traditional, or modern. Railings come in an assortment of materials, including different metals, wood, glass, and more. Once you have determined the craftsmanship you are after, it comes time to think about safety.
Consider the safety factors
While style is an important feature to consider, another is the safety of the railing. Choosing a railing that is safe and sturdy is equally as important as how it looks. Keeping your children, pets, guests, and yourself safe is a priority, and a safe railing will ensure it. The safety of a railing can tie into the look, depending on the materials used.
Think of the cost
Whether you are searching for your railings to be a bold statement or something simple, the cost of the railings is the final component to think of. Railing installation costs are determined either by the stair or by the foot. Certain materials such as composite, glass, and iron, will cost more to install. If you aren’t looking to break the bank, wood or aluminum is a more affordable option.
