What’s New in Railings for 2023: Revitalize Staircases with On-Trend Ideas
While some may say the first signs of spring are budding crocuses or a robin’s song, to those of us in the cable railing and glass railing business, the true sign of the changing season is spotting new seasonal trends in bloom.
In 2023, trends are shifting towards natural materials for home decor, but there’s a fresh twist to this organic look this time around. Designers and homeowners are embracing the art of contrast, bringing in black and metallic hardware (as seen in kitchen and bath) for texture and pops of colour. For interior and exterior railings, this stylish look is a versatile option for this spring and far beyond — both on-trend and timeless.
We also see the embrace of glass railing designs, statement-making stair balusters, and high-contrast stair spindles. Let’s dig deeper into the hottest railing trends for 2023 because there’s no better way to welcome spring than with a fresh look for your home.
Railing Trend #1: The Rise of Black Stainless

Black stainless is the colour of choice for 2023. It’s a neutral that can fit with any decor palette, but with a bold enough presence to bring a pop of drama wherever it’s incorporated.
This look brings a fresh feel for cable railing installations. Pair black stainless cable hardware details with a white oak staircase or sleek metal posts to optimize this trending style.
The fascia mount post with through-post fittings will create a statement-making centerpiece for staircases or elevate a deck railing to modern in a snap. Use stainless steel or black oxide cable infill.
If you’re considering including a cable railing design in your next indoor railing or outdoor deck, there’s the surface mount black stainless cable fittings, too. Whatever the choice, it will be an outstanding result.
Railing Trend #2: Geometrics Bring the Drama

We’ve seen geometric designs delight in the world of furniture and product design, but this statement-making detail truly pops when incorporated into a staircase or railing.
Case in point: the Bezdan Timeline Geometric spindles — a collection of stair spindles that embraces bold shapes to amp up the drama.
Pick a geometric design that suits your style for your stair balusters or stair spindles to create a head-turning look. Whether it’s rectangular, circular or square, geometric railing spindles bring a moment of sculptural cool to spaces both modern and retro-inspired.

Railing Trend #3: Pavestone Is the Perfect Stainless Steel Alternative
Black stainless may be the look du jour, but the timeless appeal of stainless steel for your stair baluster railing designs, can’t be denied. Thankfully, the new, ultra-versatile Pavestone colorway achieves a stainless steel railing look for less.
Like all Bezdan products, Pavestone-finished spindles are high-quality, with a consistent and durable finish that delivers exceptional results.
Powder-coated in a satin-finish silver hue, Pavestone spindles and balusters add a chic sheen to interior railing designs and are available in rectangular, round, square and geometric styles.
Railing Trend #4: Mix-and-Match Finishes

Looking for a more eclectic look for your railing spindles? Then this might just be the 2023 home decor trend for you. Forget the matchy-matchy look: Incorporating a variety of materials and textures into a home gives a space richness and sophistication.
That’s why we love the flexibility of the Timeline collection. Pick your favourite finishes for each component individually to create a look that’s unique to you.
For instance, mix black stainless steel railing spindles with crisp white balusters for a high-contrast effect.

Mix and match Satin Bronze stainless spindles with Graphite Black spindles to get a similar look to trending bath hardware. The options are limitless, and thanks to Bezdan’s ready-to-install spindles, a breeze to pop into place.
Railing Trend #5: Metal and Glass Make the Perfect Pair

They’re the ideal duo, metal and glass — the Batman and Robin of railing design. And this spring, it’s a more popular combination than ever before.
We can see why: a glass and metal railing is the best of both worlds. Glass is sleek and clean, allowing for unobstructed views and ample light, while metal offers stability and strength (and looks good doing it).

Plus, now you can achieve an ultra-modern look for frameless glass and baluster railings with black stainless products.
