General Decking FAQs

Why Should I Choose Trex Railing for My Deck?

Trex is the most recognizable name in decking — and for good reason. Trex has years of experience making high-quality, tried-and-true deck materials that combine beauty with low maintenance demands.

If you're looking for a premium deck railing with lots of customization options, Trex has a proven product to fit your style. Whether it's sleek aluminum railing or classic composite railing, Trex offers color, baluster, and style options to fit your vision.

Where Is Trex Railing Manufactured?

Trex railing is made in the USA. Trex manufactures its composite decking and railing in Virginia and Nevada.

Can I Paint My Trex Deck Railing?

We wouldn't recommend painting your Trex railings, as this can void your warranty. For a wider range of colors, check out the Trex Transcend composite railing line, which matches most of the shades you'll find in Trex Transcend composite decking.

Does Trex Deck Railing Come With a Warranty?

All Trex deck railing lines come with a 25-year limited residential warranty. Trex decking products are designed to outlast the elements and give you a deck that looks great and remains solid for years to come, no matter what weather your outdoor space experiences.

Choosing Your Trex Railing

What's the Difference Between Trex Signature, Trex Select, and Trex Transcend Railing?

Trex railing lines are divided up by material as well as by style:

Composite Railings

  • Trex Transcend is made of durable composite material and comes in a wide range of color options. It can also be used with a range of unique infill options, like glass panels or Wild Hog metal panels.
  • Trex Select is another strong, long-lasting composite deck railing line that combines sleek white rails with black balusters. Trex Select is a versatile, high-value option that looks especially sharp with a composite board used as a cocktail rail.

Aluminum Railings

  • Trex Signature is a sturdy aluminum railing that comes in kits for easy planning and installation.
  • Trex Signature Rod Rai puts a different spin on the classic signature look, with horizontal balusters that open up your view and evoke the look of horizontal cable railing. It's perfect for a modern farmhouse look, though it's versatile enough to fit a range of styles.

Can I Use Trex Deck Railing With Glass Panels?

Yes! Trex makes versatile railings that can incorporate a number of unique infill options. Trex Transcend railing comes in a glass panel option, and DecksDirect provides custom-cut glass panels to perfectly fit your deck's unique dimensions.

Can I Add a Drink Rail to My Trex Deck Railing?

Yes, Trex Select works especially well as a drink rail with a composite deck board, but you can also use one with Trex Signature or Trex Transcend railing.

Installing Trex Railing

How Do I Cut Trex Railing?

It's easy to cut Trex railings down to the perfect size for your space. Whether you're using composite or aluminum railings, you can cut your Trex post sleeves and rails with a miter saw or jigsaw with a carbide-toothed blade.

Trex Railing Maintenance

How Do I Clean My Trex Railings?

It's easy to clean your Trex composite and aluminum railings:
