Can they be secured to a deck railing without posts

I suppose that you could cut and thin piece of 4 X 4, screw it to the top of the rail and attach the light to that

No...cannot be used without post. Suggest 4x4 about 6 inches attach to railing. Mount to short post.

Not really, if you maybe angled the screws sharply. But I don't think the plastic can handle it

Unless the railing is about four inches wide, the lights will likely teeter

The design is for it to fit in a post. Do not believe it will work on a straight plank.

Yes they mount on 4x4 posts as well as having adaptors to mount them flat on the railing.

This is a deck post light..don't think it would fit properly on a deck rail. It works well and the light is sufficient to light the deck. May I suggest the deck stairway lights instead. good luck!

Yes you can purchase brackets that add on to the L shape bracket it comes with. You can Google them as Mayne deck rail brackets.

Yes we were very disappointed that there is no way to mount them to anything. We have a wood railing on our porch and we used liquid nails to attach them.Good luck

I wouldn't see why not you may have to use a hook or latch on the pole to secure it

yes and no. if you see those little wings on the side they actually would attach to a deck railing. yes they fit on the post, but with wings. They are pretty decent for the price and work.

No I believe these require a railing to latch to as the become quite heavy.

How are you going to attach them? I want to do the same thing on my deck on the posts. Instead of the cheesy looking 'colonial' lights that go over the fence posts as caps.

They do not come with a connector to make them atackable, but the covers for the posts come off and you could get a piece from hardware store probably.

I don't think it would work - mine are on a 2" x 6" porch rail - the brackets are made to clip over - they are heavy when full, but they are easy to take down and store for the winter. I think they make a planter for fence application?

Not I don't think so. WE have a wire fence but it has wood posts. It has never been a problem. We love the reliability of this item!! We did have to tweek the adjustments a little because we are close to a road, but after doing the adjustments it has worked great!

I don't think it will attach to railings. We used it last summer and collapsed it somewhat do to rain. It worked great. If collapsed all the way you could not use table.

The side posts come with the wheels already attached. I don't know that you can necessarily remove them without damaging the wheels but you might be able to jerry-rig something together.

Mine are 4 inches wide and they fit quite securely. I would think they would be much less secure on a 2 inch railing.

The brackets are set at a 90 degree angle. I would not suggest it for round railings.

Yes, I have round railings and it works fine. There are pads around the hangers so you can still get a secure fit around a round railing.
