Log railing pictures can give you ideas for your new log or timber frame home. I think it really helps to see pictures of features before you make a decision on including it in your log home plans.
I’ve chosen some log railing pictures that I thought were especially attractive or very creative, so that you will have some styles to choose from.
Before you make a final decision about railings for your home, take a look at these and see if you can come up with some ideas that you like. Make sure you check out my article on log railing designs.
Log Railing Pictures – Entry of a Large Log Home
A log railing can be massive, depending on where you use it.
This large log home has a log railing at its dramatic entry, and it works very well.
Half Round Stairs with Shelves
I thought this was an interesting and creative approach to log railing and stairs.
If you look closely, you’ll notice that the half round stairs extend beyond the railing.
The extensions are used as little shelves, to display collectibles and plants.
A Nautical Approach to Log Railings
This log railing in a loft has an unusual look.
Ropes are strung between the boards, and the ropes form the rails.
This look would work well in a seaside timber frame or post and beam, as the ropes give it a nautical or seaside look.
Of course it’s not limited to the seashore, as it looks very nice right here…
Circular Stairs Save Space
Of course you don’t always have to use wood for your stairway.
In this case the staircase is a circular wrought iron staircase.
Circular stairs save space, in addition to being attractive and decorative.
Round Staircase in Wood
The log railing in this log home uses smaller diameter logs for the railing.
This complements the logs used in the home.
Note that interior walls have flat sided logs that contrast with the round logs in the railing.
This Log Railing is Next to Nature
This log railing features horizontal logs used as rails.
Sitting on this porch gives you the feeling that you are connected to the forest, just beyond the porch.
It is a very natural and green approach.
Carved Art Work on a Post
Of course you don’t have to limit yourself to just posts and rails.
This adorable carved eagle is set into a decorative log post.
It is truly a work of art, almost too nice to be out in the weather.
This delightful sculpture adds character and style to the porch of this log home.
Bring the Trees you Love Indoors!
Are you a tree lover?
This interesting stairway uses trees as posts, giving you the feeling that the inside and outside are one.
A creative, primitive and very unusual look.
Forest Scene Railing
Here’s a way to add interest to an area that might be just ho-hum.
This log home railing has a wrought iron forest scene on the railing, making the area now a work of art!
Another Example of Railings as Art
In your log home, you can use the whole railing as a work of art, as seen here.
This is beautiful and quite dramatic and it turns a functional railing into a whole wall of artistic expression.
Twigs Used as a Railing
Twigs have traditionally been used in log homes for years.
You can be creative and artistic in your design, and every single railing made with twigs will, of course, be unique
