The 2024 Trex Transcend® Universal Top/Bottom Rail is the latest full-span horizontal rail upgrade from Trex, offering cleaner installation and improved precision. Engineered for flexibility, this universal rail can function as either a top or bottom rail, giving you greater control over your deck’s layout and design.
Made from high-performance composite material, this rail is ideal for modern or traditional railing designs. When used as a top rail, it’s ready to support a deck board (sold separately) to create a flat “drink rail” surface. Whether you’re finishing a flat railing system or building a two-rail design, this full-span rail delivers strength and style in equal measure.
Available in two full-span sizes:
-
6 ft. (72" actual length)
-
8 ft. (92" actual length)
Features:
-
Versatile Rail Positioning: Can be used as a top or bottom rail in horizontal railing configurations.
-
Drink Rail Compatible: When used as a top rail, supports a 2x4 or 1x6 deck board to form a flat drink rail (deck board sold separately).
