Latitudes Ornamental railing systems assembled with metal balusters, have been evaluated by engineers at an independent third party test laboratory. The results demonstrate that Latitudes Ornamental railing systems assembled with metal balusters, when installed according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions, comply with ICC-ES AC174-06, section 5.1 for use as a guardrail system. Latitudes Ornamental railing assembled with glass balusters is for decorative use only and can only be used in those applications where a structural railing is not required by building codes.
