Install Deck Railing Step 1: Deck Design

Your deck will be a highlight of your home, and during the design phase of your home, be sure to give a lot of thought to your deck design. Many will opt to have an architect to do their deck design, but be sure to give clear instruction and set expectations. For example, describe what you intend to accomplish on your new deck and what sort of functionality you need from your deck railing, such as a glass insert to protect your barbecue from the wind.

Install Deck Railing Step 2: Take Stock

Once the deck and deck railing design is complete, now it’s time to take stock. Figure out exactly what materials you’ll need to install deck railing. Create a list of the following:
– How many center posts and corner posts will you need to install your railing systems?
– How many bottom rail, top rail and welded panels will you need to have to install deck railings?
– You will also need bottom rail and top rail wall mounts, end caps and corner caps to install deck railing.

Another common question we get is: “how can I find a good local installer for my porch railings”?
