Rooftop Composite Deck Railing
Project Overview
Black railing installed around a rooftop composite deck with open views over the surrounding neighborhood, including the yard below and the street beyond.
Analysis
An exposed rooftop deck needs a guard that handles wind loading and keeps the view open. Square posts with tight picket spacing give rigidity without blocking sightlines.
Process
Measure the roof deck, fabrication, powder coat, one-day install, then sealing and cleanup.
Outcome
A rigid, code-height rooftop guard that leaves the skyline views unobstructed.
Project Details
Materials Used
Black powder-coated aluminum posts and rails with vertical picket infill, post bases anchored to the deck structure with backing, stainless fasteners throughout.
Methods & Techniques
