What Customers Are Saying

The product has a mixed reception. Positives include the sturdy, visually appealing design that enhances the home. The railing is generally easy to install, especially the horizontal sections, and the length is adjustable. However, the instructions are often poor, making installation difficult, especially for the stair railings. There are also issues with missing or defective hardware, broken post covers, and parts that don't fit properly. The stair brackets and angle adapters are particularly problematic. Some customers report the product is prone to scratches and maintenance issues, with significant waste when cutting the rails. Careful preparation is essential for a successful installation.

Beautiful Railing

Would Recommend

I love this trex railing. The white vinyl with the black baluster's really pop.

Brittle and unnecessarily frustrating

Would Not Recommend

The composite material is very brittle and can shatter easily. A tool hit the bottom railing and it complete shattered off. Have some superglue on hand, because the angle part for the railings does not attach to the bracket, it just kind of sits in it so any bump it will fall off especially when trying to fasten the railing to the post.

Stair Railing

Would Recommend

This is a great product and was hassle free as to getting this to fit to my project. I did a line order for the remaining parts to finish my project, and I should have done a better job of inspecting the items that I ordered. This came in a damaged box, when I looked inside it appeared that all the parts were there. Once I started to use this product, I discovered that the parts bag I thought was the mounting hardware was actually a support piece, and the mounting hardware was missing. I hav...

Not for runs at angles other than 45 degrees

FYI this kit is designed for 45 degree stair runs and doesn't adapt well to other angles. I'm not sure if Trex has a kit for other situations but I was able to modify this to work for my somewhat shallow stair run and it worked fine (I flipped the bottom bar over, installed, and custom drilled holes for the bars at a vertical angle). I feel like this should be more aggressively noted. I'm also not a fan of the mounting brackets being wider than the bottom rails (which leaves "fins" sticking o...

Baluster Spacing

Would Not Recommend

The spacing on these balusters does not meet code. I feel like why would you sell it? At least make it clear.

Excellent product

Would Recommend

Very good railing system. Lowes is starting 5his line at their stores now so not enough available at all store .i had to go to 3 stores to collect the amount of stufd i needed. But over all very godo quality. Make sure ur contractor knows to handle it with care while installation. As they can get scratch if u handle it roughly. Black railing very beautiful. Price is good as well.

Well made but bad instructions

Would Recommend

The directions for how to attach the mounting brackets to the railing were not good. I ended up installing it and the end of the railing and you need to put a little bit back from the end because I have a gap at where my railing meets the post. I’m afraid to drill more holes and move it back because it will weaken the integrity.
