Aluminum Handrails
Aluminum handrails are used in schools, offices, businesses, industrial, water and wastewater treatment facilities, as well as other applications. We ensure our handrails meet all applicable local and national safety code requirements. At Imperial Metal Company, our experienced professionals can handle all of your handrail needs.
We offer both welded and non-welded aluminum component handrail options.
All finished handrails are made to fit your project’s needs. Finish options include satin lacquer, anodized, powder-coated, and Kynar finishes in a wide range of colors.
Aluminum IMCO Rails
Aluminum IMCO rails differ from standard aluminum railing, because they are mechanically fastened together and not welded. The railing is fabricated and shipped in 20’-0” (or less) sections with shop attached kick plate, base shoes, brackets, and grabrails. This process produces a fully functional railing that is both structurally sound and economical, while still maintaining the ease of installation of standard welded railing. The primary use for this mechanical-type railing is in the Industrial and Water/Wastewater sectors where functionality is prioritized over high-cost aesthetics. The railing can be constructed in various ways with several mounting and installation configurations, finish options including either an AAMA Class I or II clear anodized coating, and grade 304 (or optional 316) stainless steel fasteners. Imperial Metal Company has used its many years of railing experience to meticulously design and engineer this system to comply with applicable codes and various project specifications.
Stainless Handrails
Imperial Metal Company is a custom stainless handrails fabricator in St. Louis. Stainless handrails can be used in schools, offices, businesses, industrial, medical, food production, as well as various other applications. Our stainless handrails are available in 304 or 316 alloy which makes this type of handrail highly resistance to staining and corrosion, providing a high-quality product.
We offer multiple finish options for our stainless handrails, including mill finish, brushed satin (#4 or #6), glass bead blast, and #8 mirror finish.

The creative possibilities of ornamental metals are virtually endless. They are used to upgrade the look of a structure i.e. entranceway, stairway, lobby, or any other creative space to yield that unique appearance to set your space apart from others.
Custom designs can be applied in many styles — sleek stainless cable infill railing, contemporary glass and stainless-steel railing systems, ornate forged wrought iron railing, cast scrollwork handrails and gates, and much more.
