Back To Nature specializes in custom-designed deck railing installation in Montgomery County, PA, and rail systems for homeowners.

Benefits of a Premium Railing System

An outdoor deck with wooden flooring and railings. On the deck, there are two woven chairs and two woven, cylindrical tables. The deck appears to be surrounded by trees.

A railing system is more than just a perimeter; it’s a critical component of your deck’s safety and design.

  • Safety and Security: Railings are the primary safety barrier for any deck above a certain height, preventing falls for family and guests. We ensure all installations meet strict local building codes.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: The right railing material and design can dramatically enhance your deck’s look, transforming it from a simple platform into a stunning outdoor living area.
  • Property Value: A professionally installed, modern, and durable railing system adds lasting value and curb appeal to your Montgomery County home.

Railing Materials: Style Meets Performance

Back To Nature offers three primary material categories, each providing unique benefits in terms of maintenance, view, and style.

Aluminum Railings: Strength and Modern Appeal

Aluminum is a popular choice for its durability and low-maintenance profile. These systems provide a clean, contemporary look that works well with modern homes.

  • Low Maintenance: Aluminum is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, requiring little upkeep beyond occasional cleaning.
  • Sleek Design: The thinner profiles of aluminum rails maximize your view and create a sophisticated, modern aesthetic.
  • Durability: It’s a strong, lightweight material that can withstand Montgomery County’s changing weather without warping, cracking, or fading.

Composite Railings: Classic Look, Modern Performance

Composite railing systems are made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, offering the traditional look of wood without the intensive maintenance. They pair perfectly with composite decking.

  • Fade and Stain Resistance: High-quality composite railings are engineered to retain their color and resist staining from spills or nature.
  • Diverse Styles: Available in a wide variety of colors, finishes, and designs, including options that mimic the look of painted wood.
  • Consistency: Unlike wood, composite materials are perfectly uniform, providing a clean and consistent appearance for years.

Glass Panel Railings: Unobstructed Views and Elegance

Glass panel railings are the ultimate choice for homeowners who want to preserve a stunning view. They provide a high-end, contemporary finish.

  • Maximized Views: Clear glass panels offer an almost invisible barrier, ensuring your sightlines remain completely open.
  • Modern Elegance: The frameless or semi-frameless designs create a clean, minimalist, and luxurious look.
  • Safety and Wind Protection: Tempered safety glass provides a strong, durable barrier and offers a degree of wind protection without sacrificing light.

Custom Railing Features and Design Options

Back To Nature focuses on functional solutions and aesthetic features that provide long-term value for your railing system.

  • Deck Lighting: Integrated post cap lights and recessed lighting under the top rail improve safety and create a beautiful nighttime ambiance, making your deck usable after dark.
  • Custom Post Caps: Decorative post caps (e.g., pyramid, ball, or flat styles) add a finishing touch to your rail posts, enhancing the deck’s overall design.
  • Cable Railing: For a nautical or industrial aesthetic, stainless steel cable railing offers an appealing, low-profile alternative that maximizes views.

Durability and Code Compliance

  • Durability: We use materials selected for long-lasting performance, such as:
    • Powder-Coated Aluminum: Provides a scratch-resistant finish that holds up to sun, rain, and snow.
    • High-Density Composite: Ensures structural integrity and resistance to mold, mildew, and insect damage.
  • Compliance: All Back To Nature installations meet or exceed Montgomery County, PA, area building codes for height, spacing, and load-bearing capacity, ensuring your peace of mind.
