can you place on top of deck railing?

I don't think that would work, as they bolt directly to the wall. The manufacturer's website is very helpful and provides installation instructions online. You might want to check that out. http://gomayne.com/products/window-box-collection.html

My husband says no because these are L-shaped arms that attach to the back of the box and then into the wall. Perhaps you could devise another was to set it on top of the railing, but the arms that come with it would not work. Hope this helps!

You can, but i'm not sure how you'd secure it. It will sit there and sit flat, but you'll want to find a way to secure it to the railing.

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, they are showing you the area that will sit on the railing and hang over it. It is a secure fit on your railing. I have 4 of them spaces on the railing on the back deck...

Mine sits on the corner of a deck rail. I think it is too big for a pole unless there is a platform. The tendrils from grape vines have crept through the house. Very sweet.

It has been so long since we put these in. I know they sit well on the post. I think we broke of the side tabs and if that is the case then yes you should be able to screw onto flat railings.

I sometimes store it on its edge up against a wall and between the deck rail and the wall. This only partly works for me, as the part that isn't wedged tends to bend. So I would say if you have a well supported place for it to be, that you could store it on its edge, but it should be supported in at least 2 places, or more.

William -- the brackets are square with a little bit of a hook on the end and appear to be designed to fit dimensional lumber (not round). The railing on my deck is a 5/4" x 6" (nominal 5-1/2") deck rail and it fits perfectly. Now, if you are handy and can fashion something to enable it to strap around a round rail, then it would work. Maybe a few nuts/bolts and pipe hanger strapping (comes in a coil).

Yes, that is the best way to set it up. I put mine on a slab. There are anchor plates provided to secure it to a deck.AL

You could. The flame is about 10 inches above the surface. There is no wind protection for this unit so the slightest breeze makes the flame flutter. Some people put something around the flame if there is wind to keep it from blowing out. I wouldn't do something like that on a wood deck but other than that there shouldn't be an issue with the flame and the wood. Be careful of boil overs.

Fits best on 2x4 or 2x6 railings...can be modified but not nearly as stable.

Mine did not - mine were more intended to be placed atop a windowsill (indoor or outdoor). You could purchase deck rails separately and use them to attach though, I think.

It comes with heavy duty screws and hooks on the chains to connect to top bar. They seem to be high quality. I bought the hardware for the top railing from a hardware store. Good luck!

Only if the railing is about 4 inches wide or wider. The bottom you feel up with small rocks it sand so it doesn't tip over. It would be hard to secure to a metal railing. Anything is possible if you have a great imagination.

absolutely. you do need to put either plywood or chipboad on top of your frame. Mine is on the metal adjustable frame.

use sand bags or fill with sand - per instructions that should have come with your steps.Also, ours have brackets on the handrail that are to mount to the deck.

I installed these on my sis's railing that is 2" wide. (top of rail is a 2x6 placed vertically). I cut 2x2 pieces of lumber just the length of each planter and screwed them onto the railing, then placed the planter over them.. they don't show, and the planter fits very securely. she loves them!

Assuming that you wanted the privacy screen to be over 6 ft in height, attaching to only the top crown railing probably wouldn't be enough support to handle the height of the thin latticework. But if you attached at the bottom rail and again at the top (requiring a larger piece of lattice) it would likely work. You might want to consider the Monarch 72" planter, which has a larger moulding profile at the top and bottom rails

Yes, you can certainly attach these to a railing using either zip ties or simply some wire. You will love these planters. They transformed my porch into a little sanctuary.
