Whether it is small or large, having a railing can give it a finished look. It can also increase its safety by reducing the risk of someone falling off of the edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right railing can make or break the finished deck design, though. So you want something that is strong and durable but won\u2019t completely take away from your enjoyment of the view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These deck railing ideas will help you figure out the perfect look for your deck that also fits within your budget.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>[view_toc]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

The cables are typically placed several inches apart, but you can arrange them as close or as far apart as you want. A more densely packed cable system will be safer if you have children or pets using your deck.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1124\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-ae.expressiondesign.jpg\" alt=\"Cable deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-ae.expressiondesign.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-ae.expressiondesign-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-ae.expressiondesign-820x1024.jpg 820w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-ae.expressiondesign-768x959.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @ae.expressiondesign via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-theultimatedeckshop.jpg\" alt=\"Cable deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-theultimatedeckshop.jpg 800w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-theultimatedeckshop-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-theultimatedeckshop-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Hog-Wire-Deck-Railing-Ideas-theultimatedeckshop-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @theultimatedeckshop via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Cable-Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-uniquedeck.jpg\" alt=\"Cable deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-250928\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Cable-Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-uniquedeck.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Cable-Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-uniquedeck-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Cable-Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-uniquedeck-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-bezdanrailings.jpg\" alt=\"Cable deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-bezdanrailings.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-bezdanrailings-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-bezdanrailings-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-bezdanrailings-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @bezdanrailings via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-cascade_metal_design.jpg\" alt=\"Cable deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-cascade_metal_design.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-cascade_metal_design-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-cascade_metal_design-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-cascade_metal_design-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @cascade_metal_design via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the railing is purely decorative, you could place the cables further apart. There should be a top rail on the top of your cable deck railing. It could be made from wood or vinyl. This gives you a place to lean on, place a drink, or just clearly define where the cables end.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to making this type of railing look good is to mount the hog wire in a solid frame. This covers the wire\u2019s edge and gives it the necessary support to stay secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Install a Cable Deck Railing | This Old House\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vopMY32I47A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Metal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Using metal for your deck railing will give it a strong and durable feature. Wrought iron is incredibly heavy but also durable and strong. It\u2019s one of the most expensive materials to use for your railing. It also looks best when it\u2019s the only material used for your metal deck railing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-backyard_timber.jpg\" alt=\"Metal deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-backyard_timber.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-backyard_timber-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-backyard_timber-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Metal-Deck-Railing-Ideas-backyard_timber-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @backyard_timber via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stair-Deck-Railing-Ideas-srtrailing.jpg\" alt=\"Metal deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stair-Deck-Railing-Ideas-srtrailing.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stair-Deck-Railing-Ideas-srtrailing-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stair-Deck-Railing-Ideas-srtrailing-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Stair-Deck-Railing-Ideas-srtrailing-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @srtrailing via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to use a modern material for your metal railing, then consider a stainless steel cable deck railing. A cable rail system gives you the look of metal without being too bulky. The metal cables are strung through the posts in horizontal rows and pulled taught.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Glass Deck Railing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern deck railings embrace the idea of minimalism. The railing should be secure and protective but also blend in. This makes tempered glass railings popular. These are large glass panels that get secured on all sides to stand vertically next to each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/glass-deck-railing-with-woods-in-the-background.jpg\" alt=\"Glass deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-264385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/glass-deck-railing-with-woods-in-the-background.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/glass-deck-railing-with-woods-in-the-background-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/glass-deck-railing-with-woods-in-the-background-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"904\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/glass-deck-railing.jpg\" alt=\"Glass deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-264386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/glass-deck-railing.jpg 904w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/glass-deck-railing-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/glass-deck-railing-768x510.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, there will be a top rail across the top to give the glass support and a place to rest your drink or hand. Glass deck railings are expensive. They also require consistent cleaning, or your glass won\u2019t look crystal clear. A cable railing is a great alternative if the glass is out of your budget. The cables are minimalist, more affordable, and easier to maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Deck Railing Ideas | Backyardscape\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AZOCi0ogL90?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Two Tone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Elevate your deck design by making it two colors. Use wood, vinyl, or composite for the posts and top rail. Then you can have aluminum deck balusters between the posts. This railing design elevates the look of your deck because it gives it the look of a custom deck.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Two-Tone-Deck-Railing-Ideas-mdrnhandyman.jpg\" alt=\"Two tone deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Two-Tone-Deck-Railing-Ideas-mdrnhandyman.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Two-Tone-Deck-Railing-Ideas-mdrnhandyman-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Two-Tone-Deck-Railing-Ideas-mdrnhandyman-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Two-Tone-Deck-Railing-Ideas-mdrnhandyman-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @mdrnhandyman via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s nice about this approach is that you could install deck lighting in a hollow vinyl top rail without committing to a full vinyl railing. The light would point downward, creating accent lighting and highlighting the edge of the deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Two Tone Deck Railing Ideas\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P2MNAWx7LXQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

The material\u2019s color is white, so you don\u2019t have to worry about painting it. Seasonal or yearly cleaning will remove any dirt or mildew buildup and keep it looking fresh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Wood<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The traditional deck material is wood. If you already have a wood deck, then it\u2019s natural to just use wood for the railing. With a wooden deck, you can have a DIY deck. The simple wood railing uses posts, balusters, and a top rail. Use thicker pieces for the posts and thinner pieces for the pickets. The top rail should be flat so that it\u2019s comfortable to lean on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-guyfridays.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-guyfridays.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-guyfridays-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-guyfridays-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-guyfridays-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @guyfridays via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"639\" height=\"479\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-greendalerailing.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-greendalerailing.jpg 639w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Modern-Deck-Railing-Ideas-greendalerailing-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @greendalerailing via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-jessica.lyn_.smith_.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246579\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-jessica.lyn_.smith_.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-jessica.lyn_.smith_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-jessica.lyn_.smith_-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wood-Deck-Railing-Ideas-jessica.lyn_.smith_-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @jessica.lyn.smith via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/trendey.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-wolfhoundconstruction.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden deck railing\" class=\"wp-image-246569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-wolfhoundconstruction.jpg 900w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-wolfhoundconstruction-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-wolfhoundconstruction-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/trendeydev.jahaweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Porch-Deck-Railing-Ideas-wolfhoundconstruction-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: @wolfhoundconstruction via Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You could make the wood railing extra-wide, and then people can use it to set their drinks on.
