These railings enhance your outdoor experience. They provide unobstructed sightlines, allowing you to watch the kids from the kitchen. Plus, they withstand our wet winters without rusting.

Installation Techniques
Aluminum extrusions are usually made from 6063 alloy with a marine-grade powder coat. This is important for Edgemont Village’s damp air. Glass panels are tempered for safety and are often 8mm thick. Homeowners can choose low-iron glass to reduce the green tint, which helps preserve the mountain views.
Posts are anchored directly to deck joists with stainless steel brackets and through-bolts. They are not just surface-screwed into the decking. In Edgemont Village, where lots are often sloped, posts may need to be set in concrete footings or attached to engineered beams for extra stability.
Homeowners can select from full-glass frameless systems with minimal aluminum base channels, semi-frameless systems with vertical aluminum posts, or aluminum picket rails with glass infill. Each system uses anodized or powder-coated aluminum to resist corrosion in the coastal climate.
Railing systems must handle lateral forces from wind and people. In Edgemont Village, where decks often extend from hillside homes, posts are secured to doubled-up joists or blocking. This helps distribute loads without pulling out. Stainless steel hardware is used to prevent corrosion between aluminum and treated wood.
Any penetration through the deck’s waterproofing membrane, like a post bracket, needs careful flashing. Installers use butyl tape or liquid flashing around fasteners and base plates to create a continuous drainage plane. This directs water away from the wood structure, which is important in the North Shore’s heavy rain.
Aluminum railings expand and contract with temperature changes, so connections have slots or flexible sealant to prevent stress on the glass panels. The thickness of the glass and the spacing of the posts are chosen to withstand local wind gusts. Panels are designed to meet safety standards for impact and pressure.
Edgemont Village railing regulations
For homes in Edgemont Village, any deck higher than 2 ft (600 mm) above grade requires a building permit. These decks must have guards that meet BC Building Code 2024. The guards must be at least 900 mm (36″) high for decks over 2 ft above grade and at least 1,070 mm (42″) high for decks over 6 ft (1,800 mm) above grade. The openings must be small enough to prevent a 100 mm (4″) sphere from passing through. There should be no climbable members between 140 mm and 900 mm. These rules govern the design, height, opening size, and climbability of glass and aluminum guard/railing systems installed on residential decks in Edgemont Village. For residential properties in Edgemont Village, guards are required at exposed sides of exterior landings, porches, balconies, decks, and raised walkways. The minimum guard heights are 900 mm for guards within dwelling units and for exterior guards serving a single dwelling unit where the walking surface is not more than 1,800 mm above grade. For most other guards, the height must be 1,070 mm. Glass used in guards must be safety glass, which can be tempered, laminated, or wired safety glass. It must conform to CAN/CGSB standards. Glass guards must have a top rail that can transfer guard loads to adjacent panels or structural components if a glass panel fails. These provisions affect material selection, structural design, and safety detailing for glass railing and glass guard installations on homes in Edgemont Village. The District of North Vancouver’s Zoning Bylaw includes specific provisions for roof deck guards and balustrades. It sets minimum requirements that affect the design and placement of guardrails on roof decks. This establishes minimum standards for these guards, which govern the allowable height and configuration of glass and aluminum railing systems installed as guards around roof decks on residential properties in Edgemont Village.
