Regal products contain up to 25 percent more aluminum than other systems. All aluminum components are powder coated and finished with durable polyurethane via the durable RAILCOAT™ application. This exclusive powder coated finish is the premier coating available in the market today. When applied to these railings. RAILCOAT™ is twice the thickness and hardness of the typical baked enamel finish. Consequently, it is more durable, fade-resistant and scratch-resistant than other coatings. It is available in five colors - white, black, beige, yard bronze and taupe (the last two are available in texture finish).
