Do you love your beautiful staircase, but your handrail and balusters are old or outdated? Then, a stair railing remodel is the perfect project for you. Whether pre-designed or custom-made, a metal handrail system from Artistic Stairs is a great start. A metal stair railing offers robustness and a range of looks from traditional to ultra-modern.
Let’s outline some unique designs for installing a metal stair railing with metal balusters for a modern rustic look.
Metal Stair Railing System Options
Metal has been around for millennia as one of the most durable materials.
Wrought Iron
This type of metal is made with very little carbon and is therefore considered an iron compound. In contrast, cast iron has a much higher carbon amount. Many consider wrought iron to look like wood in disguise, as it has a rustic, grainy texture to it. Likewise, wrought iron balusters come in a plethora of designs and widths, along with powder-coated finishes available.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is also very low in carbon. Essentially, stainless steel makes a great outdoor and indoor railing material. It’s an affordable metal and is corrosion resistant. Yes, outdoor stainless steel railings and balusters will rust, but can be easily polished and repaired. A variety of shapes and widths give stainless steel its classic and clean look.
Cable
This metal is one of the most modern materials in the home décor and stair industry. Usually made of aluminum or iron, a cable railing and balusters offers an ultra-lux and sleek contemporary design. Do you have young children in your house? Cable railings are safe and extremely durable. Cable have been held to higher quality standards than other materials.

Metal Balusters (Balusters)
Just like the metal stair railing itself, the individual balusters or balusters can be pre-designed for you, or custom-made. A wide range of widths, designs, and even engravings are possible with different types of metal.
