Default Aluminum Railing

...
I am replacing my railing. At first, I was sold on vinyl, but today I was
at Lowes/Ziggys and I think I like the powdered aluminum railings
better.

The salesmen at both stores said aluminum will last longer, and the price
is probably $50 more or less.

Does anyone have aluminum and do you like it?

Is anyone sold on vinyl?

Any feedback would be great.

Thanks.

Kate




If you live by the sea, sal****er would be a concern for aluminum, otherwise
I'd say aluminum. Vinyl discolors if it's exposed to sun, and may become
brittle after such exposure too.
