Alpha Glass provided exceptional service, demonstrating attentiveness throughout the project. They clearly explained available finishing and design options, along with project timelines. Multiple quotations were provided to accommodate our budget, and a quality check was performed post-installation. Furthermore, the installers were professional and maintained a clean work environment. We are entirely satisfied.

Railings & Stairs FAQ

Before you get in touch.

Prefer to talk it through? Call +1-778-69-ALPHA (25742) and describe the job.

How do I know which of these I actually need?

You often do not, and that is fine. Send a photo and the rough dimensions, or describe the problem in your own words. We will tell you which option it is, what it involves and what it costs.

Does a glass railing meet BC building code?

Yes, when it is specified and installed correctly. Guards need to meet minimum height and load requirements, and exterior glass has to be the right type and thickness for the span. We specify to code as part of the quote rather than leaving it to you to check.

Can you match new railing to what I already have?

Usually. Send photos of the existing posts, top rail and finish. Where an exact profile is discontinued we will tell you, and either match it closely or recommend replacing a full run so it reads as one system.

Do you do the metal work as well as the glass?

Yes. Stairs, gates and window wells are measured on the same site visit as railings and made to match them, which is why they sit in this group rather than in a separate department.

Do you supply glass only, or supply and install?

We supply and install. Your glass is made to our designer's measurements by trusted local glass manufacturers such as Garibaldi Glass, and our own installation teams fit it. Every quote covers the glass or metal, the hardware and the installation together, so there is no gap between what was supplied and who fits it.

What does the measure cost?

Nothing. Our designer measures your opening in person, then you get a fixed written quote. Call +1-778-69-ALPHA (25742) or send the form and we will book it.
