Code-Compliant Wrought Iron Railings

Building inspectors and insurance companies are focusing new attention on non-code wrought iron railings, including railings that were formerly “grandfathered in”. Safety is the bottom line. Widely spaced pickets, short railings, and loose railings are potential safety hazards. Leaving them as is could result in a fine, a red tag, insurance rate increases, or worse, an insurance claim due to an injury.
