Choose a Signature Handrail

Compare cable railing handrails, including metal and wood profiles for interior and exterior projects.

Choose a handrail based on the environment, profile, and finish style. Metal works well outdoors. Wood warms up interior projects and stained spaces.

This step covers Signature cable railing. Express uses a smaller set of pre-configured options, so some choices shown here do not apply to Express.

If you choose Express, go to Customize Your Express Cable Railing to review the standard option set. If you choose Signature, continue through the full customization process.

How to choose the top detail

• Choose metal for outdoor use, lower upkeep, and a slimmer profile.
• Choose wood for warmer interior projects or stained finish matching.
• Match the handrail finish to the posts and infill so the system reads as one design.
