ARMOR-RAIL ADDS COLONIAL
STYLE RAILING WITH
STRUCTURAL FIBERGLASS TURNED BALUSTERS
Shakespeare
Composite
Structures has introduced Armor-Rail®, the structural fiberglass
railing system for decks and stairs that makes installation simple and
homeowners happy. The new product comes in colors, sizes, and styles for
residential or commercial applications, and doesn’t need painting. It comes
with a lifetime warranty, too.
“We’ve
designed a product that is not only great looking and easy to install,
but stronger than its competitors by far,” said a company
spokesperson.
“We’ve made sure Armor-Rail® passes the tests hands down.”
Properly
installed,
Armor-Rail® deck and stair railing will meet or exceed most building
code
requirements. The system takes advantage of structural fiberglass
technologies
that Shakespeare Composite Structures has applied to its lighting
poles, and sophisticated fiberglass reinforced products for a variety of
industries.
Armor-Rail® won’t rust, rot, or corrode, even in salt air or adverse
weather conditions, and insects won’t eat it. It never needs painting,
though you can paint it if you want.
The new
Colonial railings utilize the same strong, structural fiberglass posts as the other
styles.
Decorative post tops, innovative mounting brackets, and other
accessories complement the system.
“Colonial
style railing
sections are preassembled, so all you do is attach them to the posts,"
said Joe Prochak, director of sales and marketing. "Besides, it’s so
strong you can span twelve feet between posts, and that means fewer posts and
brackets that you have to deal with.”
The
company manufactures Armor-Rail® in three rail heights for commercial or residential use
anywhere. A selection of styles is available, including Classic (rectangular
rails, round pickets), Traditional (rectangular rails, square pickets),
Victorian (shaped top rail, square pickets), and Heritage (shaped top rail,
round pickets). Armor-Rail's Clear View style lets the user select
locations for tempered glass panels. All of the styles includes standard and
adjustable stair railing sections, plus structural posts and columns and a
gripable hand rail.
Now a Philips group brand,; Shakespeare Composite Structures has
since the 1950's pioneered the use of fiberglass reinforced composites. The company is
the world leader in fiberglass reinforced composite utility poles, light poles, and related
products.
