Get a Quote for Galvanized Steel Railing Frames
t341-43

To get a quote for galvanized steel railing frames, send us photos and approximate dimensions of the balcony, terrace or stair, and we will arrange an on-site measurement. After measuring, we prepare a drawing and written specification for you to approve before anything goes into production. Hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating are available as finishes suited to outdoor exposure.
What information to prepare before requesting a quote
A clear inquiry saves time for both sides. Prepare photos of the area from several angles, a rough sketch with approximate lengths, and the type of glass infill you have in mind, such as clear, frosted or tinted panels.
- Number and height of the railing runs
- Whether the frame is fixed to a slab, a wall or a stair stringer
- Intended use: balcony, terrace, roof or staircase
- Preferred finish and colour if known
Including the site address helps us plan the measurement visit.
Why hot-dip galvanizing suits outdoor railing frames
Hot-dip galvanizing coats the steel in a layer of zinc that protects it from moisture and air, which is important for exposed frames on balconies and terraces. The zinc protects the steel even where the surface is scratched, because it corrodes sacrificially.
For frames that will be seen, we can add a powder coat over the galvanized surface. This gives a uniform colour and an extra barrier, and it is a common choice for contractors who want a finished look that matches the building facade.
How the measurement and drawing stage works
After we receive your inquiry, our team visits the site to measure the openings, check the substrate and note any obstacles. Measurements are taken on site rather than from plans alone, since finished walls and slabs often differ from drawings.
We then prepare a drawing showing the frame layout, fixing points and glass dimensions, together with a written specification. You review and approve both before production starts, so any change is made on paper rather than in the workshop.
Frame design and fixing considerations
The frame must carry the glass infill and resist the forces it will meet in use. Fixing method depends on the substrate: concrete slabs, masonry walls and steel stringers each need suitable anchors. Glass railings also involve channel or clamp details that hold the panels securely.
Railings in Israel are expected to meet the national standard for railings, SI 1142. We refer to it in the specification, but exact load and dimension values are checked with the project engineer for each job rather than assumed from general rules.
Preparing the surface and handling on site
Galvanized frames should be handled with care during transport and installation to avoid damaging the zinc layer. Where a powder coat is applied, surface protection on the frame should be kept until final installation is complete.
- Store frames off the ground and under cover
- Protect corners and edges during lifting
- Touch up any site drilling with a zinc-rich paint
From approval to installation
Once the drawing and specification are approved, the frames are cut, welded and galvanized in our factory, then finished with the chosen coating. Installation follows, with the frames fixed at the points shown in the approved drawing. Glass panels are fitted after the frame is secured and checked for alignment.
Keeping the approved drawing on file makes it easier to order additional sections later and to match finishes across phases of a project.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to send exact measurements to get a quote?
Exact measurements are not required at the start. Photos and approximate lengths are enough to open the inquiry, and we take precise measurements on site before preparing the drawing.
Is galvanized steel suitable for balconies facing the sea?
Galvanized steel performs well outdoors, and a powder coat over the zinc adds further protection in coastal conditions. We recommend discussing the exact exposure of your site during the measurement visit.
Can the galvanized frame be painted in a custom colour?
Yes, the galvanized surface can be powder coated in a range of colours. Tell us your preferred colour when you send the inquiry so it is included in the specification.
Will I see the design before production begins?
Yes. You receive a drawing and written specification after the measurement, and production only starts once you have approved them.
Common mistakes to avoid
Ordering frames from photos alone or skipping the on-site measurement often leads to fitting problems and costly changes. Choosing a finish without considering the exposure of the location can shorten the life of the frame.
Our recommendation
For contractors, send the inquiry with the substrate type and the glass infill chosen early, so the fixing details are settled before drawing approval. Specify hot-dip galvanizing as the base and add a powder coat where appearance matters.
Summary
Send photos and basic dimensions, approve the measured drawing and specification, and receive galvanized frames built to the approved design.
