Ametco® Railings PRODUCT PRESENTATIONAmetco railing systems utilize the same infill panel method as our fence systems and our other product lines. Panel sections are available in a variety of styles, patterns and sizes. Installation is fast and efficient, and the modular design keeps panel replacement simple. The railing is manufactured to be both functional and decorative, harmonizing visually with any environment. Radial patterns and other designs can be custom fabricated. Just provide us with specifications for a quote. Each railing system is built to withstand a 200 lb. load in any direction. Ametco railings are available in electro-forged welded steel design which provides complete penetration of the cross member, and perforated steel, aluminum or stainless steel. A polyester powder coating, available in 15 standard colors, makes the railings durable and able to withstand exposure to the elements. Railing Types For railings that span between adjacent construction, Ametco® panels are contained between two horizontal square steel tubes at the top and bottom edges of the infill panel. This system can span up to 144 inches (3657mm) without intermediate posts. For typical cantilever style installations, the Ametco® panels are bolted between steel bar posts, providing a strong, light and elegant railing. See the CAD details attached to this Profile for additional information. Please contact Ametco® for engineering assistance when preparing your details. These assemblies are galvanized and can be finished using thermohardening powder coatings. This superior finishing system virtually eliminates corrosion and maintenance problems. Handrails

Infill Panel Limitations Curved Railings PRODUCT IN PLACE In the Topmount method, mounting plates attached to each post are expansion bolted to the structure below. In the Facemount method, the railing posts are mounted to the face of the structure typically below the level of the walking surface.

MATERIALS and FINISHES Lasting Colors The hot dip galvanizing will leave rough areas on the treated surface. These rough areas do not impair the coating in terms of corrosion resistance. The galvanized product is then powder coated. The color gives an “extra” touch of appeal to the Ametco® fencing system, harmonizing with its surroundings. Once you have selected the color from the wide choices available, it will endure exposure without crazing or fading. For jobs where a smooth surface is requires, see ®’s Fixed Louver Aluminum or stainless steel products. Colors 
Finish Warranty The warranty for the polyester powder coated finish is 20 years. The polyester coated galvanized metal remains corrosion free for years. Performance properties for the polyester coating are as follows:
A 2-part polyurethane coat on top of hot dip galvanized is used when gates are too large to be powder coated. Ametco® Mfg. Corp. certifies that its fencing systems are free from defects in material and workmanship. The polyester coated finish is guaranteed not to crack, peel or blister for a period of 20 years. Accidental damages, defects resulting from improper installation and damage from vandalism or abuse are not included. Warranty is limited to a prorated value of the coating, not to exceed the original value of the coating. Or, at Ametco®’s discretion, re-coating the panel but not to include labor removal or reinstallation. TECHNICAL SUPPORT Applicable Standards:
