Wait, I Can Easily Get a Railing Price Now?

  •   Posted on April 19, 2019

For years getting a project into Superior’s railing quotation process was potentially mysterious and complex, but that is no longer the case.

In the past, getting a quote from Superior Aluminum meant knowing the right people to contact, or waiting awhile for the right people to process your plans. Now, thanks to the new Superior Aluminum Railing Quote Tool, your request can be quickly received and the quotation process begins more efficiently.

WHAT ARE WE QUOTING?

Superior Aluminum railing comes in numerous shapes, styles, and sizes. As is the case with any product, aluminum railing or otherwise, each slightly different aspect of the product can produce a big difference in price. Due to the custom nature of most Superior Aluminum projects, a unique quotation must often be generated.

Be it for porch railing, stair railing, railing for an apartment building, deck railing, or any other use, each fully custom railing system is unique. Different mounting options, heights, finishes, and even installation methods can shift the final rate needed for your project to secure a beautiful custom railing solution.

Each of these projects required a unique quotation process

THE TOOL

The new Railing Quote Tool link can be found on the top of every Superior Aluminum webpage, and also can be reached by clicking the link on any individual product page. The tool works in the same way as most online contact forms. We simply require some basic contact information to get started (and for you to get your quote).

From there, we need to know some information about your project:

  • Project type – This helps us to know that we have all the info we need for that specific project type and allows us to ensure we plan for building code compliance
  • Residential or Commercial – Useful in determining if selected options are applicable
  • Company name and project name – Assists with the management of your quote throughout the process
  • Railing Series, finish, and mounting style – Helps the team develop the most accurate quote

After this form is filled out, we require some type of image or sketch of the project with measurements in order to complete the quote. This can be a simple sketch, a scanned picture of the area in question with measurements, or the full project plans. More info can be found in our best practices guide.
