Picket Rail
Picket railing is the most common style of railing. A basic picket rail typically consists of a top rail and a bottom rail, with vertical pickets and a post approximately every 6 feet. At RailPro, we offer everything from generic to enhanced custom picket rail styles, in order to deliver the design look you are seeking for your deck railing. To suit your needs, you may customize any of the following elements of your picket rail:
Rail Styles
The standard picket rail has a top rail and bottom rail and full height vertical pickets. It has the contemporary square top rail which is a low 2″ profile and a very clean look. A popular and economical upgrade is to add a midrail. This provides a more custom look than the big box standard style.
