Railing

Typical railing systems include safety rails, a toe rail and optional rub or hand rails. Railing materials will vary by function and architectural requirements. Orientation and spacing is dictated by the Owner based on the primary use of the bridge.

Railings to Fit Application and Code Requirements

Railing combinations can vary by intended use and differing code requirements. Most bridges incorporate a toe plate, safety rail and rub rail. Orientation for the safety rail is typically vertical or horizontal.

Custom Rail

Custom railing is available at an additional expense. Contact us to review project-specific options.

Approach Railing

Approach railing guides users onto the bridge. Custom sections can be built to match or complement the bridge. Less expensive options utilize preserved wood. Regardless of style, approach railing is encouraged.
