Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Onyx Rods?
Onyx Rod Railing is an alternative style to our Signature Rod Railing line. In the Onyx line, every part of the system from the rods to the hardware is black so that you can achieve an entirely black railing system.
How Do The Onyx Components Work?
The Onyx Rod Railing components work the exact same way as the components in the Signature Rod Railing line. However, we use an oxidation process to make the components black so that the entire system has a black, uniform look.
Is Onyx A Safe Exterior Railing System?
Yes! The 304 Stainless Steel rods are powder coated black and are great for an exterior project. However, because the product is 304 SS, we recommend using this 10+ miles from any salt water.
How much are Onyx Rods?
Onyx rod railing is $135-$185 per linear foot for an aluminum system. Prices vary based on whether you have stairs as part of your system, how many corners you have, and other project specific conditions.
