Hi Robbie, There is no wood in the structure of these balconies. The frame is made of galvanized steel and is secured in the concrete floor of the apartment. The deck is made of wood and the railings are glass. The brown pieces are made of a special metal "Cor-ten steel" or "Wheatering steel" that only rusts on the surface.
