Why Choose East Coast Refinishing for Professional Metal Railing Fabrication?


Each railing project follows a precise process designed for quality, safety, and visual appeal. We begin by reviewing architectural drawings, code requirements, and design preferences, producing detailed shop drawings for approval before fabrication begins. Based on your environment and usage needs, we recommend optimal materials and finishes that balance strength, cost, and appearance.


Using advanced cutting, forming, and welding equipment, we fabricate each component to tight tolerances while our certified welders ensure every joint meets structural and safety standards. As refinishing specialists, East Coast Refinishing handles all coating and painting in-house, ensuring consistent quality, adhesion, and weather protection without subcontracting requirements.


Our comprehensive material options include carbon steel for heavy-duty applications, stainless steel for corrosion resistance, aluminum for lightweight outdoor use, and wrought iron for decorative architectural detailing, all enhanced with sandblasting, priming, powder coating, and custom finishes.
