Communion Rails

Communion rails have traditionally been used to define the a boundary between the nave, or central area of the church, from the chancel, or area around the altar reserved for clergy and sometimes the choir. It is also where the faithful kneel while receiving Holy Communion. Through the years, communion rails have come and gone from churches, sometimes sparking debate in the process over their placement; however, their use remains common in churches used by the Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran faiths to this day.

We feature hand crafted communion rails constructed from solid oak in custom lengths to suit your church’s particular needs. Available styles include a traditional wood grain finish, white-painted Colonial finish, or a Colonial style with a stained wood finish. Each of these communion rails comes equipped with a top rail tray and an elevated kneeling surface padded with high density foam and durable, high quality fabrics. Detailing between the uprights ranges from the simple to the more elaborate designs with intricate scroll work. Hall Furniture Ltd. is dedicated to providing you with the absolute best quality, hand crafted communion rails available today.
