This was such an epic build!!
What happens here
With the railing posts firmly installed, the team moves on to assembling the rest of the railing system. This involves attaching the horizontal top rails and bottom rails between the posts. The video shows individual sections of railing components being carried and secured. While the exact infill method (balusters, cables, glass panels) isn't detailed, this step typically includes installing these elements within the rail framework or directly to the posts. The final railing creates a protective barrier around the deck perimeter, enhancing both safety and aesthetics.
Goal: Complete the railing system by installing horizontal rails and infill.
Tools and materials
- Bottom Rails Decorators — The lowermost horizontal component of the railing, securing the base of infill elements
- Cordless Drill/Driver — Driving fasteners to assemble railing components
- Fasteners — Securing rails and infill to posts and each other
- Level — Ensuring horizontal rails are level
- Railing Infill — Filling the space between top and bottom rails for safety and aesthetics (not explicitly shown in detail but implied)
- Tape Measure — Measuring rail lengths and infill spacing
- Top Rails Decorators — The uppermost horizontal component of the railing, often serving as a handrail
