Customize Your Railing - DesignRail® Infill
The basic infill options are illustrated below. However, we can
also assist with custom infill such as textured, etched or decaled
glass panels, special picket designs, or even wood strips or panels
for solid barriers or fences—the Aluminum Railing System adapts.
All infill options require a horizontal Foot Rail (optional for
36" high frames using horizontal cable infill only) and a Cap Infill
Channel. These secure the railing infill and add support to the
frame structure. Foot Rails connect to the posts using Rail
Connecting Blocks (RCBs) and Cap Infill Channels snap into the
underside of the Cap Rails. Each infill type has a specific corresponding
Foot Rail and Cap Infill Channel design. Foot Rails and Cap Infill
Channels are available in 10 and 20 foot lengths that can be cut to size
in the field.
