About Railings NYC
Railing work in New York City isn't like railing work anywhere else. The buildings are older, the access is tighter, the code requirements are stricter, and the logistics of getting materials to a fourth-floor walkup or coordinating with a co-op board add layers that contractors in other cities never deal with.
That's exactly why we do what we do. We know how to work in this city — the DOB requirements, the building management coordination, the freight elevator scheduling, the tight timelines. We've handled hundreds of railing projects across all five boroughs, and we know what it takes to get them done right without dragging out the process.
What We Do
We build and install custom railings and handrails for residential and commercial properties throughout New York City. Our core services include wrought iron railings, stainless steel railings, aluminum railings, commercial handrails and guardrails, and custom gates. We handle design, fabrication, and installation.

How We Work
Every project starts with an on-site visit. We come to your building, assess the space, take measurements, and talk through what you need. Within 48 hours, you'll have a written estimate with materials and labor itemized.
For buildings with specific access requirements — co-ops, condos, managed buildings — we coordinate with your building manager or super to schedule delivery and installation within the building's rules.
Built for New York Weather
New York's climate is tough on outdoor metalwork. Winter road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, summer humidity, and the constant wear of city life all accelerate corrosion. Every railing we install is either hot-dip galvanized or finished with a commercial-grade powder coat designed for year-round exterior exposure in the Northeast. We don't cut corners on finishing — because a railing that starts rusting after one winter isn't worth what you paid for it.
Our Specialties
Brownstone stoop railings are one of our highest-volume project types. We also handle a significant amount of commercial lobby and stairwell handrail work, interior staircase railing systems, rooftop deck railings, and custom security gates.
