Fast Balcony Stanchion and Post Kit

The Fast Balcony Stanchion and Post Kit supplies the vertical structure of the guard program: five welded aluminum stanchions with base hardware, matched to the balcony and railing systems. It covers guard extensions, replacement posts, and site-built runs that need to match the prefabricated balcony line.

Each kit carries five AL 2.5 x 2.5 x 3/16 in square aluminum stanchions cut for a 42 in guard height, with a 36 in option where the project code allows, plus base hardware for bolt-on installation. The profile matches the guard structure used across the balcony platforms and railing systems, so mixed scopes read as one program on the elevation. Posts surface-mount to the balcony frame or deck structure per the released details, with spacing set by the project engineering, and every post is powder coated in the four-color program to match the guard order.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many kits do I need for my run?
Post spacing comes from the released engineering rather than a fixed module, so send the run drawing with the quote request. As a planning class, guard bays in this program run in the 4 to 5 ft range, and the exact schedule is confirmed during quote review.

Do these match the posts on the prefabricated balconies?
Yes. The stanchion profile matches the guard structure used across the balcony platforms and railing systems, so extensions and repairs read as the same program.

When is the 36 in height allowed?
Typically in one and two family residential settings where the applicable code permits a 36 in guard. The height is confirmed against the project code during quote review.
