Aluminum Deck Rails and Why We Love Them

Your favorite Omaha custom deck company is going to take you on the journey of aluminum deck railing. One of the little-discussed aspects of decks is the railing system. Aluminum deck rails avoid the bulk of fatter more obscure railing. Aluminum is thin, opens up the deck, and allows for higher visibility. But there’s more…

Highly Resistant

Aluminum is a non-ferrous metal. This translates to there being no need to worry about corrosion and rust. Aluminum is considered to be one of the most weather-resistant materials on the market. It can easily stand up to rain, snow, and UV rays.

Low Maintenance

Aluminum deck railing is generally a very low-maintenance system. It requires minimum maintenance tasks, such as occasional repainting. However, if you choose a powder-coated aluminum railing, you get a completely maintenance-free system that needs only occasional sprucing up.

Aesthetically Pleasing

Nobody wants to admit it, but everybody is concerned about appearance as much as function. Aluminum deck railing comes in a variety of designs, colors, and patterns that will be sure to match your style. It looks great but also blends seamlessly into the design so you can put other aspects of your deck on center stage. There’s nothing worse than a big bulky railing that looks out of place and obscures views.

Affordable

Aluminum is much more price-friendly than wrought iron or steel. It does cost more than wood, but it doesn’t require any of the costly and time-consuming maintenance tasks that wood railing systems demand. Aluminum is a one-time investment without the additional costs and maintenance of other rail systems making it the most versatile of railing options.

Aluminum vs. Steel

Most aluminum deck railing available nowadays is powder coated which allows them to last for years without ever having to repaint. Steel, on the other hand, will need a new paint job every few years. Aluminum is lighter and more flexible than steel making it easier to transport and faster to install.

Aluminum vs. Wood

The most important difference between aluminum and wood railing is that aluminum will not rot. Further, if aluminum is properly powder coated, it does not require any maintenance during its entire life cycle. On the other hand, wood will need to be repainted every two years and sealed with chemical treatments.

Aluminum vs. Vinyl

Aluminum has a great quality of having a low expansion and shrinkage index. An aluminum deck rail maintains its shape and dimension throughout extreme cold or heat. Vinyl is severely affected by extreme temperatures and shrinks and expands excessively. Repeated shrinking and expanding can deteriorate vinyl railings after only a few years. Vinyl also fades and cracks due to UV radiation. UV rays have a minimal negative effect on powder-coated aluminum.

Low Maintenance Decking Needs No Winter Preparations

Deck season in Omaha will soon be coming to an end. And while Omaha homeowners are likely making winter preparations for sprinkler systems, furnaces, vehicles, etc., Decks, Decks, and More Decks’ customers with low-maintenance custom decks are doing zero preparation or worrying about their decking in preparation for the winter months.

Traditionally, cedar decks suffer from wear and tear during every season. From extreme temperatures, sun exposure, and moisture, cedar decks take a significant amount of care during their lifetime. A low-maintenance deck made of composite decking has many advantages. Composite decking is mold-resistant and not susceptible to mildew or other toxic growth in winter months.

Custom Arbors for Shade and Beauty

Pergola and arbor are often confused to be the same type of structure. And while they are both outdoor structures built with posts that support an open roof of beams or lattice – they are, in fact, different. Our custom deck Omaha team designs and builds both.

We’ve already discussed pergolas in a previous post, but an arbor is considered a freestanding structure that serves as an entrance to a part of a yard or garden, often with plants climbing up and overhead. Arbors include two or four posts with a simple slatted roof. The sides of an arbor can be open or covered with lattice or trellis work for a more enclosed effect, and to help vines better attach.

Arbors, particularly in small or narrow gardens, add a structural element, frame an opening or entranceway, provide privacy to the homeowner, and act as a vertical growing element. Using an arbor as an entry provides privacy and frames the entryway. If the space is narrow and long, using an arbor can help to break up the space into smaller areas or rooms for different uses.

The purpose of an arbor will define its size, placement, and material. Our Omaha deck builders are experts in many outdoor structures – including pergolas. Give us a call to discuss how we can enhance the beauty and function of a backyard with a custom pergola.
