Safety First: Choosing Child-Friendly Railings and Fencing

As families in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, and nearby communities seek to create beautiful outdoor spaces, safety remains a top priority—especially for homes with children. At Maple Exteriors INC, we understand that your backyard, deck, and front porch aren’t simply places to relax; they’re spaces where your little ones play, explore, and grow. Choosing the right child-friendly railings and fencing is crucial for peace of mind and maximizing your family’s enjoyment outdoors.

Why Safety Should Lead Your Railings and Fencing Choices

Accidents can happen in the blink of an eye, especially where stairs, pools, or raised decks are present. The right aluminum or glass railings and fences are your first line of defense. They not only enhance your property’s curb appeal but also safeguard your children by minimizing fall risks and keeping them away from hazardous areas.

When selecting railings and fencing in areas like Aurora, King City, or Newmarket, consider solutions that blend safety, style, and durability—all qualities that Maple Exteriors INC prioritizes in every installation.

Key Features of Child-Friendly Railings and Fencing

Prioritizing safety doesn’t mean sacrificing aesthetics. Modern designs offer both sleekness and security. Here’s what to look for when choosing your next railings or fences:

• Height Compliance: Ensure railings and fences meet or exceed local building codes for height, reducing the risk of children climbing over.
• Narrow Spacing: Picket fences and balusters should be closely spaced to prevent small children from squeezing through or getting stuck.
• Smooth Edges: Choose materials and designs without sharp corners or exposed hardware to minimize injury risks.
• Durable Materials: Opt for aluminum or tempered glass, both of which are weather-resistant and sturdy, ensuring longevity and ongoing safety.
• Secure Gates: Aluminum gates with childproof latches protect entrances to pools, decks, or gardens.

• Is the design climb-resistant?

• Does the installation meet local safety standards for Vaughan and York Region municipalities?
