Aubrey ISD is one of North Texas’s fastest-growing school districts. To meet the demands of rising enrollment, the district constructed Evalois Owens Middle School—an 800-student campus designed by Huckabee and built by Steele & Freeman. The 144,408-square-foot facility features clean, modern lines and open learning spaces that prioritize visibility and student safety.

Railing System: Circum™ Square & Inox™
Location: Aubrey, Texas
Architect: Huckabee
Contractor: Steele and Freeman

Supporting Growth with Purpose-Built Design

To support these goals, HDI Railings delivered a system tailored to the school’s needs—durable, visually consistent, and built to integrate seamlessly into the architecture. From the earliest stages, our team worked closely with the design and construction partners to ensure the right solution for each space, balancing safety, openness, and long-term performance.

Designed for Safety, Built for Schools

For this project, we paired Inox™ and Circum™ Square to meet the unique safety and supervision needs of each space. With Inox™, laminated glass infill keeps sightlines open along second-floor corridors and overlooks—supporting supervision without visual barriers. Meanwhile, Circum™ Square with picket infill offers a sturdy, code-compliant solution for stairways where durability and student safety are critical. Together, these systems support smooth circulation, strong protection, and a modern design that complements today’s learning environments.

Strategic Placement for High-Use Areas

The railing layout wasn’t just about appearance—it was about function. Installed at second-floor overlooks, our Inox system supports open visibility without sacrificing student safety. In stairwells, Circum™ Square’s picket infill provides strong vertical protection where foot traffic is constant and safety is critical. HDI worked closely with the project team to ensure each space received a system that supported how students move and how staff supervise. At HDI Railings, we design every system to fit its place—so your building works as clearly as it looks.
