Vinyl PVC or Aluminum Outdoor Railings

Many of Liberty Fence & Railing‘s customers shopping for new exterior railings or handrails ask, which material is better, vinyl PVC or aluminum. Both offer advantages, are versatile, and customizable, but other factors should be taken under consideration, such as design, style, purpose, and budget. Knowing more about each choice could help you make your decision.
