Hand railing installation built for daily use, not just looks

A wobbly railing is more than a cosmetic problem. It is the thing your family and guests grab on the way up the steps, and it needs to hold weight every single time. As a hand railing installation contractor, we build ours to do exactly that, set into solid footings rather than screwed into whatever is underneath.

We work on porches, entry steps, decks, and interior stairwells throughout Greensboro, Oak Ridge, Kernersville, Summerfield, and Asheboro, NC. Every railing is measured to your actual steps and grade, not cut from a pre-sized kit, so the rise and spacing come out right the first time.

Whether you need a single safety railing on a set of front steps or a full run around a new deck, we scope the job on site before any work starts. That includes talking through material, height, and how the railing ties into the rest of your build.

Materials and styles for every home and budget

We install hand railings in the materials that hold up best to Piedmont weather and daily traffic, and we can match a railing to an existing fence, deck, or porch style. Options we build most often include:

  • Powder-coated aluminum railings for a clean, low-maintenance line that never needs repainting
  • Wood railings built to match a wood fence, deck, or porch post style
  • Wrought-iron style metal railings for a more traditional entryway look
  • Simple straight-run safety railings for steps and short porch spans
  • Wraparound deck railings that follow curves, corners, and multiple step-downs
  • Interior stair railings for basement, garage, or split-level steps

If you are not sure which material fits your home or your budget, we will walk the property with you and lay out the tradeoffs in plain terms before you commit to anything.

Why it matters

The real benefits of a properly installed railing

A railing that is set right does more than pass an inspection. It keeps kids, older family members, and anyone carrying groceries or a laundry basket steady on the steps, and it holds up to being leaned on for years without loosening.

Because we handle fencing, decks, and railings as part of the same business, a new railing we build ties in cleanly with existing deck posts, fence lines, or porch framing instead of looking like an afterthought. That matters most on custom deck construction projects, where the railing is part of the structure from day one, not something added at the end.

A well-built railing also protects the rest of your outdoor investment. Loose posts and rotting wood around a railing base can spread damage into a deck or porch if they sit unaddressed, so getting the installation right the first time saves you a bigger repair down the line.

Why Choose Us

Why Greensboro homeowners choose In-Line Custom Fencing for railings

Dennis and Will, the owners of In-Line Custom Fencing, are on site for railing jobs the same way they are for every fence and deck build. That keeps the measurements accurate and the finish consistent from post to post.

  • Owners on every job

    Dennis or Will walks your steps and porch with you before work starts, so the scope and price are clear up front.

  • Built to your actual steps

    Every railing is measured and cut to your rise, run, and grade, not pulled from a generic pre-made kit.

  • Metal or wood, matched to your home

    We install both, so your railing can match an existing fence, deck, or porch rather than clashing with it.

  • Licensed and insured

    Every railing installation is covered from the first cut to the final walkthrough, on residential and commercial properties alike.

How it works

Our hand railing installation process

Here is what to expect when you call us for a new railing, a replacement, or an addition to an existing deck or porch.

  • Step 1: Tell us about the project

    Call or request an estimate online. Let us know where the railing is going and roughly how many feet of run you need.

  • Step 2: Walk the site with an owner

    Dennis or Will measures your steps or deck in person, talks through material and style, and gives you a clear price before anything is scheduled.

  • Step 3: We set posts and footings

    Posts go into solid footings or existing framing, set plumb and spaced to meet code height and gap requirements.

  • Step 4: Rails go on and we clean up

    Top rails and balusters are set, checked for level and strength, and the site is cleaned before we walk it with you one last time.

What homeowners say

Reviews from Greensboro-area homeowners

David Brauneis

★★★★★

During the recent Labor Day Weekend storm we had the unfortunate experience of having an approximately 24 inch diameter tree come down on the roof of our home. Since there was a lot of damage in the area it was difficult to get someone to come out (with the required crane) to remove the tree from on top of our house. I wanted to let everyone know that In-Line Fencing (Will) responded quickly and got a crew with a crane to out home in approximately 36 hours and was able to get the tree removed. The job and communication were very professional, the work well down, and the clean up of the tree/roots/branches excellent as well as quick. If you encounter the unfortunate experience of having a tree come down during a storm, I would definitely highly recommend using Will at In-Line Fencing.

Great quality company, highly reccomend working with Dennis for any fencing needs.

We hired In-line to fix a botched job done by a different gate company (Sierra Structures). Dennis immediately thought of a creative solution whereas others were stumped. He quickly installed new poles that were appropriate for the weight of the gate and repositioned and reprogrammed our automatic solar gate so that now it works great. We highly recommend In-line and Dennis.

Mike Walker

★★★★★

Very professional and good communication between me and the scheduling guy. A wet summer made our start date impossible but In-Line kept in contact until the weather permitted them to progress. They had to have the underground utilities located a second time and pull equipment off other jobs but they got it completed before the weather made the ground soggy again. A tiny amount of damage to my neighbor's fence was repaired before it was ever noticed. Highly recommended these hard working folks

I am extremely happy with my experience with In-Line Custom Fence. Dennis and Will Schneider were great to work with -- professional and polite and knowledgable. My old fence was removed and the new one installed in about six hours. Amazing!!! They also installed some posts for outdoor lighting which looked really, really nice. Well done!

Really great group of hard working young men. Excellent work ethic and very fair price. Had them do two jobs for me.

Nancy Byrd

★★★★★

In-Line is honest and fair. Dennis and Will are hard working, respectful and conscientious. They arrive when they say they will and do a great job at everything they do, including completing the job when they say they will. They don’t just do fencing. They did tree and stump removal, put in a French drain and graded the yard after bringing in good quality fill and topsoil at a very reasonable price. They did all of this at a very economical price. We will never use any other company.

I recently had In-Line Custom Fence replace my old deck on my house. They did an excellent job. Dennis, Will and the crew were great to work with throughout the entire project. A big part of why I chose In-Line was due to my initial contact with Dennis. At the time, he was on vacation in Greece and offered to start looking at the project if I sent him some photos. I told him I would be happy to wait until he got back but, that type of commitment and service was appreciated. The day he got back he contacted me and all through the project he kept me up to date on progress and communicated very well. He also saved me money and proposed some changes to my plan that resulted in a better design. I would highly recommend In-Line Custom Fence for any of the services they offer which obviously is more then fencing. . Dennis and Will are very easy to work with, do good work and offer a fair price.

Common questions

Answers before you call

These come up most often. There are more on the FAQs page, and an owner will answer anything specific to your property on the phone.

Read all FAQs
Do you take on commercial fencing projects?

Yes. Alongside residential work we handle commercial chain link, perimeter and site-security fencing, plus automated gates for commercial properties. Call us to talk through the site and the scope.

What fencing materials do you work with?

Aluminum, vinyl, wood and chain link, in both residential and commercial applications. We will walk the property with you and talk through which material suits the use, the grade and the budget.

Do you build anything besides fencing?

Yes. We build decks, pergolas and hand railings, pour the concrete that goes with them, and grind out stumps that are in the way of a new fence line or deck footprint.

Do you repair existing decks, or only build new ones?

Both. As a deck repair company, we handle loose boards, rotted framing, and failing hand railing installation on decks we did not originally build, along with full custom deck construction for homeowners starting from scratch.
