‘Safety first’ applies to a lot of areas of life. But when it comes to the sanctuary of your home, ensuring you’re protecting your family and pets is important.
Our deck railings can assist with exactly that – and in this blog, we want to share how!
How Deck Railings Protect Your Family and Pets

With spring in full-swing, fresh air and sunshine is spilling over in many parts of North America. As such, your deck becomes a central hub for relaxation, gatherings, and playtime.
Wanting this space to be safe is just as important as making sure it is comfortable. Deck railings serve as more than just a decorative element—they provide essential protection for everyone in your household.
Here’s how …
Prevents Falls and Injuries

One of the primary functions of deck railings is to create a secure boundary that reduces the risk of falls. With properly installed railings, your family can enjoy peace of mind knowing that there’s a sturdy barrier between them and an unsafe situation.
Ensures Pet Safety

If you have pets, you know how curious they can be. Deck railings help ensure that your pet stays safely contained without the risk of jumping or slipping through gaps.
Childproofs Your Outdoor Space

Children are naturally adventurous. While often want to foster that curiosity, it also means extra precautions need to be taken.
Deck railings that provide the proper height and spacing, can prevent toddlers and young children from squeezing through or climbing over, reducing potential hazards.
All of these safety precautions are important, and by prioritizing safety, you can create a secure environment for everyone.

Move or cover wires and electrical cords so pets don’t chew on them. Or, better yet, get a wireless home security system so there are no wires to chew on. Block off any holes or small spaces (for example, behind washers and dryers). Pick up potential choking and poison hazards before you go out.Jun 12, 2024
