Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Residential, Commercial, and Industrial grades?
Each grade steps up in picket, rail, and post dimensions to match its intended use. Residential grade is our most popular option for homes and residential pool areas. Commercial grade offers greater strength for higher security and meets tougher municipal and commercial property requirements. Industrial grade is our heaviest-duty option, built for applications where the absolute highest strength and security is required.
