The deck railings were delivered this week and the carpentry team started the install. These were custom made to specs from our builder. The main feature is the pickets in the railings are 2 1/4" square instead of a standard 1 1/2" picket. The larger size really looks good with the log house. The rails are made from pressure treated pine which will eventually have a sealer applied. This most likely will be done by us next summer, once the wood has completed drying. All the decking will be done in the same manner and will most likely be left the natural color.
Pictures show a few sections of the railing which are about 40" high, a bit higher than we've had in previous houses but feel pretty good when standing next to them, should be a perfect height to set a beverage while enjoying the view. The first shot is Ryan and Matt as they prepare to set the first section.
