Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is Ultra Aluminumrailing easy to maintain?
Yes, Ultra Aluminum railing are made from high-strength Ultrum Alloy with a minimum 35,000 psi, so they are durable and will not rust. Our Powercoat is twice the thickness and hardness of typical wet coatings, making it more fade- and scratch-resistant, so the color will stay true. In most cases, a simple spray from a garden hose will suffice in keeping Ultra railing looking good.
