Custom Stair Railings
Elevating Your Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
What is Custom Fabrication?
Custom fabrication refers to the process of designing and crafting pieces specifically tailored to your needs, style, and specifications. Both new homes and existing homes have unique elements. Whether it’s a structural element, a functional piece of hardware, or an ornamental addition to your home, custom fabrication makes things fit. The biggest benefit of choosing custom fabrication is that you get a final product that fits your vision precisely—without compromise.
Minimalist Stair Railings- Modern, Sleek, and Safe
Most of our railing installation projects in Southern California feature modern materials and designs. Whether we are providing a custom access gate or a modern bannister railing for one of our clients; here are some common trends with our installs:
- Materials: Stainless steel, glass, and hardwood species are staples. Stainless steel offers a sleek, minimalist look, often paired with glass panels or stainless cable for an open, airy feel. Wood is frequently used in existing homes or to tie in with hardwood flooring. Wood timbers can also be combined with different metals for a hybrid aesthetic. Cable railings—thin, horizontal steel cables have been an indoor and outdoor favorite among our railing customers.
- Design Trends: Minimalism is popular, with straight lines and uncluttered profiles. Horizontal railings are a big shift from traditional vertical balusters, giving a more horizontal flow that suits open-plan homes. We furnish custom mono-stringer stairs in San Diego and Orange County; floating staircases, where treads seem to hover with hidden supports, Modern stairs often pair well with glass or slim metal railing posts and low pro top rails for a futuristic edge. Matte black finishes and bare stainless steel are most often requested.
- Functionality: Safety meets style—our stair railings are designed to comply with building codes (e.g., 4-inch sphere rule for gaps) while still maintaining the modern aesthetics. This can be a challenge with “no top rail” designs in high demand. Base shoe supports and custom railing posts with rated clips and hardware allow endless possibilities without loss of function. Smart integrations, like LED lighting and solar powered drivers allow for effortless outdoor living and safe decks and stairs.
