Decorative deck railing?

[VolMax]

Hey guys, the wife is wanting to dress up the deck rails this spring. Anybody got suggestions on where to buy them?

Be sure to allow yourself a minimum of three weeks when special ordering.

I'm doing wood posts and cattle panels in place of my spindles. I'm going to dado out my posts 3/8 of an inch, and slide the panels down the the decking. I will then drill 3/8 holes in the deck (1/2" deep) to receive the panels and in turn, do the same thing on my top rail. I'm super excited about it and can't wait to do it come April!

Looks good plus feedlot panels are sturdy and will last for many years...

Good choice.

I like this look when your deck is elevated and you have nice views. The only thing I would change is to raise the bottom rail about 2-3 inches off the base of the deck. Otherwise, it will be a pain to sweep any leaves, dirt, etc. off your deck.
