About Deck Railings
Deck Railings in Kent, WA
Our shop is in Kent, which means a deck railing for a Kent home is fabricated a few minutes from where it gets installed. You can come and look at it on the shop floor before it goes out.
We measure, build, and install with our own team, in metal, glass, and cable, for East Hill homes and for commercial properties across the valley where a deck or balcony railing takes daily public use.
Local jobs carry no travel charge, and being close means we can come back easily if anything needs adjusting after installation.
Why the Railing Matters
What We See Fail on Older Decks
Working locally for years, the same problems come back. Wood railings that were never recoated and have gone soft at the post base. Stock aluminum kits where the brackets have worked loose because the deck moved and the kit could not. Posts that were fixed to the rim board rather than through it.
Almost none of that is a material failure. It is a fit and fixing problem, which is why we measure the deck as it stands, fabricate to those dimensions, and pay attention to how the posts connect rather than treating that as the easy part of the job.
What We Build
Deck Railing Materials
Metal, glass, and cable, all built and finished here in the Kent shop for homes and businesses.
Metal Deck Railings
The workhorse, and the right answer for most Kent decks and for any commercial railing that takes daily contact. Powder-coated steel in modern or traditional designs, with aluminum where a deck stays wet through the valley winter.
Glass Deck Railings
For an East Hill deck with a valley outlook, or a commercial balcony where the look matters. Tempered panels keep the view whole and block wind, and in a commercial setting they read as a higher specification than pickets do.
Cable Deck Railings
Stainless cable between metal posts, open and modern for less than glass. It suits updated Kent homes and light commercial decks, and needs only an occasional tension check once it has settled.
Local Experts
Deck Railings Across Kent
On East Hill and the higher ground, decks sit above the valley and often have a genuine outlook, so cable and glass do well there. In the established valley neighborhoods, most of our work is replacing aging railings on sound decks.
Across the Kent Valley, commercial properties, apartment buildings, and mixed-use sites need deck and balcony railings built for constant use and finished for heavy exposure. Being local, we handle those quickly and come back easily for service.

Two Directions
Two Directions for a Kent Deck Railing
Both are built here in the same shop, for homes and commercial properties alike.
Modern Deck Railings
Slim black metal, cable, or glass with clean horizontal lines. It suits updated Kent homes and reads well on a commercial frontage, where a modern railing signals a maintained property.
Ornamental Deck Railings
Traditional picket and pattern work in fabricated metal for the city’s older homes. Finished for the outdoors and detailed so it suits the age of the house rather than looking like something added recently.

See What Our Customers Are Saying
Posted on Google Kristina G.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We're so thrilled with our new stair railings! Custom Railings WA and Mike's team did a high quality job from start to finish. We got the black powder coat finish with hemlock handrail in natural stain, which looks so elegant (see attached photos). The powder coat finish is really attractive, and we like that it's durable and not easily scratched. We were a little nervous that the wood color/characteristics on the top rail might turn out to be inconsistent across such a long run of railing, but the hand rails on all of the railings match beautifully. Thank you, Mike and team for taking such great care of us! Our new stairs are the perfect touch for our new farmhouse.Posted on Google Adele FesanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used this company for the second time, and this was our first time ordering railing for an outdoor deck. The service was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Communication was excellent, the team was easy to work with, and everything was completed exactly on schedule. The installation crew was highly professional, respectful, and left the area clean after completing the job. It was truly a pleasure working with a company that operates with such care and professionalism. The quality of the railing is top-notch — a very high-end product that exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again in the future.Posted on Google Leyla HasanovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We ordered glass railings for our parents’ home in Seattle. We were choosing between two options, glass or modern metal railings, and in the end we decided to go with glass. We’re extremely happy with that choice. The team helped us understand the differences, guided us through the design, and completed the installation on time. The railings look amazing. Great experience overall!Posted on Google Zamina BabayevaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the first day, they were professional and easy to work with. Mike always replied quickly, and the team made sure every detail was just how I wanted. In the end, we got beautiful glass railings that fit perfectly with our modern home in Bellevue. Thank you, Custom Railings WA, for making the whole process smooth and enjoyable!Posted on Google J BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a good experience getting outdoor railings for my front concrete steps and for my stone steps in the back garden. I had put off doing this for so long and thought that railings might detract from the aesthetic look of my yard, but I was so wrong. I absolutely love my new railings, and loved working with all the guys who came out - to measure, to bend the metal and dig post holes, and finally to install the finished railings. Thank you!Posted on Google Jill SprattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful experience with Mike and his crew at Custom Railings WA. From design planning to installation they were knowledgeable, patient, helpful and professional.Posted on Google K CarrollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience. Could not be more thrilled with the work Custom Railings did. Start to finish top notch work, excellent communication, very professional crew, wish all companies operated with such integrity, truly a pleasure to work with!Posted on Google Hanaa Abou OufTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have beautiful new railings thanks to Custom Railings. Good communication, beautiful product, and they made sure everything was clean before they left. I will definitely use them again in the future!Posted on Google Cathy MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Custom Railings WA. They replaced our outdated railing with a new custom designed railing that fit our dreams and our budget. Communication was always clear and timely. They even worked around the chaotic schedule of other contractors working on our bigger remodeling project that impacted when the railing could be installed. Very Happy with our railing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What usually goes wrong with an old deck railing?
CustomRailingsWA2026-10-02T22:46:00-07:00In our experience it is almost always the connections rather than the material. Wood that went soft at the post base, or a stock kit whose brackets worked loose as the deck moved. That is why we measure the deck as built and pay close attention to how the posts are fixed.
Can I see the railing before it is installed?
CustomRailingsWA2026-10-02T22:45:32-07:00Yes, and it is worth doing. The shop is in Kent, so you can come see finish samples, compare cable and glass hardware in person, and on your own project look at the fabricated railing on the shop floor before it ships.
Is there a travel charge on a Kent deck railing?
CustomRailingsWA2026-10-02T22:45:00-07:00No. The shop and showroom are both here in Kent, so local jobs carry no travel charge. We can usually come measure quickly and return easily if anything needs adjusting after installation.
Do you build deck and balcony railings for commercial properties?
CustomRailingsWA2026-10-02T22:44:33-07:00Yes. Apartment balconies, mixed-use decks, and commercial frontages across the Kent Valley need railings built for constant public use and finished for heavy exposure, which is a different specification than a home deck. Being local, we handle installation and any later service quickly, with no travel charge on a Kent job.
