Does horizontal metal railing meet building code?

Metal Railings and Partition

Whether horizontal metal railings meet building code requirements depends on your location and the specific regulations in place. In Canada, horizontal railings are permitted, but the spacing between the horizontal bars and overall height must comply with local safety codes to prevent children from climbing or slipping through.

At Forge 53°, we design horizontal metal railings that adhere to all necessary building codes while maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic. Before installing horizontal railings, it’s important to consult local regulations or work with a professional installer to ensure compliance.
