Porch/Stoop and Steps Railing

[Ryan K.]

Need a railing for my new brick stoop and steps. Its a small stoop about 4x6 with 4 stairs to sidewalk. Got one estimate so far for aluminum but the price shocked me. Its only 6 posts and approximately 18-20 linear feet of railing total including the stairs. I'm hoping to have at least one more estimate today and possible a third soon. But was wondering if anyone has a ballpark number for cost, or any other ideas to keep the budget from getting blown on this item? Im trying to use a railing company for the job but maybe there are other contractors that can tackle it?
