Overview
Your front steps are the first thing guests touch when they visit, and often the part of the house you use most. A secure handrail makes those few steps easier for everyone, from kids carrying backpacks to older relatives coming for dinner, especially when the steps are wet, icy, or covered in leaves.
We install aluminum railings on brick, stone, concrete, and paver front steps for homes in Hackensack and nearby Bergen County towns. The goal is simple: a railing that feels solid in the hand, looks like it belongs with the house, and does not ask you to scrape and paint it every few years.
Benefits
Steadier footing
A continuous handrail gives a reliable place to hold on when steps are slippery in rain, sleet, or snow.
Better curb appeal
Slim black or neutral profiles frame the entry and pair well with colonials, capes, splits, and newer builds alike.
Low upkeep
Powder-coated aluminum does not rust like steel and does not rot or splinter like wood, so care is usually just an occasional rinse.
Fits most step types
Posts can typically be surface mounted to concrete or stone, or core drilled where the material allows.
Options
- One side or both sides
- Many homes use a single rail; wider steps often benefit from rails on both sides.
- Picket styles
- Classic square pickets, wider spacing for a modern look, or horizontal designs where suitable.
- Graspable handrails
- A round or contoured handrail can be added to the top rail for a more comfortable grip.
- Colors
- Black is the most popular choice, with white, bronze tone alternatives and other powder-coat colors depending on the product line.

Good to know: Railing requirements for steps depend on the number of risers, the height of the steps, and your town's rules. We will talk through what applies to your entry, and you should confirm any permit needs with your local building department.
