About Al13 PLUS Aluminum Railing

Al13 PLUS uses fully pre-welded infill panels and a simple bracket system, finished in a FortressLock powder coat that resists corrosion and UV. Colors are Gloss Black, Black Sand (textured) and White. It is third-party tested and suits commercial and residential railing. Drop-in Pure View glass infills are for residential use only.

Traditional panels come in 6 foot (69 inch) and 8 foot (93 inch) lengths at 34 and 40 inch heights, with adjustable stair panels in 6 and 8 foot. Posts are 3 inches in 39.5, 45.5, 49 and 55 inch heights. Accent top panels include 8 foot Ring, 3 Rail and Circle, and the system offers a range of top, accent and drink rails. Gates fit a 36 inch opening, and Make-a-Gate goes up to 48 inches. Evolve brackets, I-Supports, cap rail clips, flat pyramid and ball caps, and FortressAccents LED lighting are available.
