The Metal Railing is a craftable structure used to build protective railings, walkway edges, and safety barriers in player bases. It snaps to compatible metal structures and provides a clean industrial aesthetic.
Spawn it directly into your inventory with its GFI code. Since it has no blueprint path, you receive the finished structure ready to place, not a blueprint to learn.
