Red Brick Cape Front-Step Handrails
Project Overview
Clean white aluminum handrails on red-brick front steps of a traditional cape cod, engineered for a tight-radius return at the top.
Analysis
The top landing is small, so we fabricated a custom tight-radius return so the rail terminates properly without overhang.
Process
Measure, fabricate, one-day install.
Outcome
A safe, code-compliant rail that improves curb appeal and replaces a rusted predecessor.
Project Details
Materials Used
6063-T6 aluminum, gloss-white powder coat, welded mitered return, stainless hardware.
Methods & Techniques
Template return angle on site, shop-weld, sand and re-coat, anchor-bolt posts into brick.
Key Highlights
Custom tight-radius return, gloss-white powder, matching second rail on adjacent step set.
