Aluminum rub rails and chair rails protect walls from chairs, luggage, backpacks, and pedestrian traffic. Rub rails are commonly used in classrooms and conference rooms to protect from chairs, but also work well in hallways and other areas that withstand impact at specific heights. Aluminum rub rails and chair rails are available in a variety of sizes and thicknesses to accommodate all applications, and serve as a cost-effective alternative to stainless steel.
