Why Vancouver Picks Us
Interior Railings for Both Sides of Vancouver's Story
Vancouver runs two housing stories at once: century-old Craftsman blocks in Hough, Arnada, and Shumway, and a fast-growing high-end market in Felida, Salmon Creek, and the new Waterfront district. Each asks something different of a railing, and we build for both.
Our team handles the full chain of design, fabrication, and installation. On a 1915 stair, that means matching original character. On a new Felida custom, it means long open railing runs drawn and built for that exact space.
Steel, glass, cable, brass, or hand-worked ornamental iron: every system is drawn for your stair and built in our own shop before it ever reaches your home.
Railing Systems
Railing Systems We Build for Vancouver
Across Clark County the same three systems do most of the work. Here is how they land in Vancouver homes.
Metal Railings
Vancouver’s range, Craftsman to contemporary, is exactly where custom steel fabrication earns its keep. From slim steel bars to hand-worked wrought iron, metal offers the widest range of any interior railing material. Black remains the finish homeowners request most, though brass and bronze come up often in higher-end projects. We fabricate each railing to fit your stair, then finish it to hold up to years of daily use.
Glass Railings
South-facing Columbia views from the Waterfront and the heights make glass an easy call. Nothing opens up a staircase like glass. We install glass panel systems in framed, semi-frameless, and frameless configurations, sized to your stair. It is the first choice wherever there is a view worth keeping or a floor plan that should stay open.
Cable Railings
Cable suits Vancouver’s newer eastside and Felida homes: open, tough, and easy to live with. Cable railing gives you openness without the upkeep of glass. Thin cables, tensioned between shop-built posts, hold their line and let light and sightlines pass straight through. It suits contemporary homes, lofts, and anywhere a heavy railing would fight the architecture.
Where We Work
Serving Every Vancouver Neighborhood
In Felida, Salmon Creek, and Lakeshore, custom and semi-custom homes bring grand stairs, tall open railing runs, and view-facing landings. That is glass and refined steel territory. Downtown, the Waterfront towers and Uptown Village condos call for compact modern systems.
The historic core is different work entirely. In Hough, Arnada, Shumway, and Lincoln, we restore and reproduce Craftsman-era balustrades without stripping their character. Out east, Fisher’s Landing and Cascade Park remodels keep the oak-to-steel conversions steady.

Built for Here
Home Turf on the North Side of the River
Custom Railings OR is the Oregon arm of a Washington-based fabricator, so Vancouver is not an edge case for us. It is home territory, and Clark County projects are part of the regular schedule.
Vancouver is also building fast. The Waterfront district and the north-side neighborhoods keep adding new homes, and new construction favors a shop that can design the railing alongside the build rather than squeeze a kit in after the fact.
Styles
Modern or Ornamental, Built Either Way
Vancouver splits cleanly: contemporary systems for the new construction, faithful traditional work for the historic districts. We build both.
Modern Railings
Waterfront condos and Felida customs share one brief: open, dark, precise. The modern railings we build lean on proportion rather than ornament: thin steel members, uninterrupted glass, quiet hardware. Done right, the railing becomes a clean line the eye follows through the whole space.
Ornamental Railings
In Hough and Arnada, ornamental work doubles as historic preservation. For traditional and formal homes, ornamental iron carries the detail the architecture asks for. Our fabricators build scrollwork, baskets, and custom patterns by hand, so the railing looks like it was always part of the home.

Interior Railing Questions from Vancouver
How far around Vancouver do you travel?
All of Clark County, including Camas, Washougal, Ridgefield, and Battle Ground, plus the full Portland metro across the river. Fabrication happens in our own shop either way.
What railing styles are popular in Vancouver right now?
Black steel and cable lead in the newer east and north-side neighborhoods, glass dominates view homes and the Waterfront, and traditional profiles hold steady across the historic districts.
Can you restore the railing in our older Hough or Arnada home?
Yes. Craftsman-era restoration is regular work for us. We reproduce picket profiles, newel details, and finishes to match the original stair, and when the old railing has to come out entirely, we build the new one to carry the same period character.
Do you work in Washington as well as Oregon?
Yes. Custom Railings OR is the Oregon extension of Custom Railings WA, a Washington-based company with more than 1,500 railings installed, so Vancouver and Clark County projects are home territory for a licensed and bonded team.
