Compare the profile
Look closely at the top surface, edges and hollow section. These details help you discuss the appearance and connection design.
Consider every detail
Start with the shape. Plan the whole railing.
A railing brings together the visible profile, the supporting structure and the connections. Choosing these together helps create a consistent result across straight runs, corners and changes in level.
Coordinate the setting
Consider the railing alongside your decking, façade and surrounding metalwork. Review a physical sample before confirming the finish.
Specify the assembly
Define the posts, rails, infill and fixings as one project schedule. Profile selection is one part of a complete railing design.

From selection to specification
A good railing starts with a clear project brief.
Send a plan or a marked-up site photo. Include the location of each run, changes in direction and any stairs so the profile discussion starts in the right place.
Discuss Your ProjectFor guarding and balustrades, have a qualified project professional confirm the complete assembly, loading, height and opening requirements. A profile photograph does not establish structural suitability.
- 01
Map the layout
Identify straight runs, corners, stair sections and openings. Note the overall dimensions and the intended finished height.
- 02
Define the support
Identify the substrate, post positions and fixing conditions. Confirm how loads transfer into the supporting structure.
- 03
Review the finish
Shortlist the visible profiles and sample colours, then coordinate caps, infill and connection details with the project design.
- 04
Confirm before ordering
Agree the model codes, lengths, quantities and assembly details. Check the design against the requirements that apply at the project location.
Designed around your project
Plan around the way the space is used
Decks & terraces
Coordinate the railing line with the deck edge, board direction and entry points. Resolve the connection to the deck structure early.
Steps & changes in level
Consider the slope, landings and continuity of any required handrail. Stair connections need their own details.
Commercial landscapes
Share the expected use and project requirements, including public access and maintenance considerations, before selecting an assembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers for choosing railing and preparing your project enquiry.
Choosing your profiles
3 questionsView answers
Which railing profiles can I view?
The collection shown here includes ST80K45, ST60K40A, ST90K40, ST60K60 and ST90K90. Use the enlarged images to compare the visible shape and cross-section, and quote the model code in your enquiry.
How do I choose a colour?
Use the photographs as an initial visual reference and request a current physical sample. Review it next to the decking or other finishes under the lighting expected at the project.
Are these complete railing kits?
This page presents individual WPC profiles. Ask Sungem to confirm the components and quantities included in your quotation, including any posts, infill, reinforcement, caps and fixings required by your design.
Project planning & ordering
3 questionsView answers
Can the profiles be used for a balcony or safety barrier?
Suitability must be confirmed for the complete proposed assembly and the project requirements. Have your project professional review the structure, fixings, loads, height and openings before specifying a safety barrier.
What should I send with an enquiry?
Send a layout, dimensions, installation location, substrate information, preferred profile codes and estimated quantities. Mark stairs, corners and openings so these details can be reviewed separately.
Where do I get dimensions and installation details?
Request the current drawing for the selected model and the applicable assembly details from Sungem. Confirm lengths, tolerances, reinforcement and fixing requirements for the proposed use before ordering.
