Thank you! It does not wrap all the way around the side of the house, just to the edge of the back of the house. I agree and would love to change the whole railing, but it’s not a priority right now. We were actually just talking that maybe the face should be the same color as the floor which will be SW Canyon like the large deck next to it in the picture.(disregard the landscaping. That’s the next project. :))

I think I like it painted in the white. goes w/all the other white trim. I would not do it in the deck color because you will not be able to see that deck from below. it's just going to be a random 3rd color.

I really appreciate your input!

I would consider it trim and your trim is white.

Normally, the balusters would have its own support, so it would look like this:

Good point! Thank you!

if there is any way you could do a railing like this (it's vinyl, should be that expensive) I'd do it.

You see how it sit off the deck and the lower portion of the balcony? the spindles are not attached to that lower portion of the house. they sit on their own 'rail'.

(and it's shown here in a reddish brown? You said you're using Canyon Clay as the color for the deck?)

tried to photoshop it on yours so you can see the diff.

this railing from Home Depot is about $87 for a 3'X4' section

Weatherables Riviera.

or you could do it like this w/the black wrought iron spindles. but you see how they don't rest on the floor? I like this look a lot better. (shown here w/a driftwood brown deck color)

This is trex decking, but notice how they did the blue color on the outside, lower portion of the balcony. (remember I said no random 3rd color? this is how to prevent that)

I do like the look of this railing and black, simple spindles for your home.

when you're ready you could do this.

similar color house, brown deck, and the black railing.

This would look nice too. a driftwood gray deck color w/the black

Thank you! So helpful to see these ideas!

Yes white...the house needs a horizontal line.
