When choosing something like a balcony railing, we often face a difficult and significant decision about the material it should be made from. The most common metal railings are made from stainless steel or black steel. Balcony railings made from timber are also a frequently used solution, but it is a material with a considerably shorter service life than stainless steel. Because timber needs very frequent and unavoidable maintenance, timber railings are slowly losing the popularity they built up to metal ones.
A durable metal railing is an excellent choice and an investment for years
Considering the high durability of the product, the best solution is definitely one made from stainless steel. The material a metal railing is made from is completely resistant to the corrosion that affects metals, and it is exceptionally strong under heavy and frequent loads. That holds true for stairs as well as for balcony and terrace railings. A metal railing copes excellently with the changing weather usually found outdoors. The appearance of a metal railing built this way is versatile, which means it can be used in practically any situation, however small. The option of painting in a wood imitation finish means it can easily be matched to the colour of window frames, doors, soffits or any timber on the facade of the house. Another advantage is the option of producing system railings intended for self-assembly, which gives genuinely wide scope. A railing supplied in parts can be sent by a logistics company, which is not possible with a welded black steel railing.
Higher quality means a relatively higher price
The only, and unfortunately significant, disadvantage of a steel balcony railing is its relatively high price — but given the outstanding durability of the material, that larger investment will certainly pay for itself before long. A stair railing should also be made from solid materials.
We recommend metal railings: they give you certainty, the highest quality and an excellent appearance that will stay with you for many years. Our range also includes decorative interior railings made to individual order. Take advantage of our modern solutions and choose safety and practicality. Our railings will protect stairs, balconies and terraces beautifully.
An aluminium or a steel railing?
Wondering whether to choose an aluminium or a steel railing? It is worth considering the advantages of aluminium. Compared with steel ones, aluminium railings are lighter, resistant to corrosion and need no frequent maintenance. As a result they perform excellently in all weather conditions, keeping their attractive appearance for years. What is more, their modern design and how easily they can be matched to different architectural styles make them the ideal choice for anyone who values durability and elegance. At Fello we specialise in producing aluminium fences and railings, offering the highest quality solutions matched to your needs.
A modern interior and exterior railing
In our system railings we combine all the advantages of steel and aluminium, which makes our products very hard-wearing. By the time a timber railing is ready for replacement, our railings will still be intact and looking superb — provided use has not been excessive or extreme. The practical use of an aluminium infill, in turn, makes them remarkably light. If you are interested in metal railings with a horizontal or a vertical infill, write to us.
We guarantee a complete service — from design through to installation. Powder coating in our own shop extends the life of an aluminium railing further still. Choose any colour from the RAL palette or a wood imitation finish. It is an excellent way of matching the style and colour of your railings to other parts of the property — the facade, the fence, the gate. Invest in quality and durability. Choose Fello.
We will match our solutions to your individual needs — here you will find what you are looking for. We also make stair and terrace railings matched perfectly to the other elements of your property. They make an excellent decorative feature of a building that also improves safety.
