Would this be suitable for a high-rise balcony railing or are they liable to topple? I won't want to break City ordinances and decapitate anyone.

The recess is designed for the width of a wooden deck railing. It is probably 6" wide, and flat at the "top". You are better off with the window box type that have hooks for a typical metal balcony railing.

Depending on the railing. It is designed to fit over a 2" X 4" wooden rail. I screwed mine to the wooden rail with 4 wood screws apiece. They will also drip when you water them as there are pre-drilled holes. Unless you screw them down, or somehow affix them, I would not trust them to sit on a rail. They are however quite durable and do their job!

I do not believe you will have any problems with it toppling off of the railing. It fits snugly if you order the right size.

I don't think it would work out well, they are light so they would probably just fall over, maybe on concrete if the wind isn't blowing.

i would think so, but it's very light, not sure if it would topple...you might need to put a plywood or plexiglass circle under it, or a couple of anchors to the table top depending how you're using it

We're hanging a step stoll for ours, but it is attached to a wall and less than a foot off the ground. I wouldn't recommend using it to hang anything from the ceiling and nothing over 5 pounds which if I remember correctly is the weight limit on these. That is nothing your afraid won't fall and hit someone if it did.

I did NOT need to use all of the included pieces of the brackets to hang the planters over my narrow iron balcony railing. I suppose if you were to attached a board or rail of some kind to your house, leaving a bit of space for the bracket to hang onto, it would work great for you the same way it did for me. (The piece I did not use, was the part used for wider wooden deck rails). Hope this helps you. Sorry for delay in answering. I LOVE the planters and have not had any problems with them in heavy downpours and/or wind.

I suppose you could hang it. Thick pieces. Probably need some framing for it just to be safe.

Yes, that should be fine. Especially if you have stuff in it. If not, then it won't topple, but it might budge.

It appears to fit only 2x4 or 2x6 railings. It could be modified, but would probably be tippy.

For balance, maybe, but I expect in a fall it won't save you. Even if screwed to a stud, I think the rest of the mounting hardware might not be strong enough.

We actually put it on a metal round railing but it would most likely fit up to a four inch board railing. I got two and gave them to a friend. They are really nice.

Yes it is definitely sturdy enough but I would be concerned about them if they might miss the general center of the platform and jump in the edge that then they might cause the stack to topple if you stack too high.

I would think it might not be safe. The leg of the ladder could twist or bend?

Shouldn't be a problem. I just have mine hanging an inch or so over my ledge. I absolutely love this product!

Since the bracket that comes over the rail, did not come down far enough to catch under the rail, my husband flattened the bent part out and it hangs fine that way. We also secure it with zip ties just to be safe. We had a lot of trouble finding brackets to fit our vinyl covered railings.

No. Its placed together in about a 45* or less angle which helps prevent that from happening. It doesn't stand that high to really harm anyone even if it did go over.

No chance. Not if you expect anything beyond a visual deterrent. One touch where they meet in the middle and the whole contraption would just fold. Now you COULD screw two of these together in the middle, and THAT would likely work reasonably well.

I wouldn't trust it for that! It's not a steel hook. I'm careful not to let mine fall by accident.
