Railings and stairs FAQ

How much do railings cost in Toronto?

One Etobicoke company installs aluminum railing from $80 a foot. Glass starts at $180 a foot framed, before install, at another.

Do I need a permit for a deck?

Yes, in Toronto, for a deck more than 60 cm above the ground.

When is a guard needed?

Toronto's property standards call for guards where a walking surface is more than 600 mm above the ground next to it, with some exceptions.

How high does a deck railing need to be?

Under the Ontario Building Code, at least 900 mm on decks up to 1.8 m above the ground, and 1,070 mm above that. Gaps under 100 mm.

How fast can I get a spiral stair?

One Toronto maker ships stocked spiral stair kits in 1 to 3 weeks.

Good to know

  • Measure the full run in feet, corners and landings included.
  • Steel railings outside need a coat. Ask about powder coating.
