Proper spacing for your railings is also an important aspect of a safe and sturdy deck build. Railings
come in a variety of infill styles, so spacing and installation guidelines may vary between materials.
Generally, railing baluster and infill gaps must not exceed 4" wide. The space between the decking
and bottom rail also can't exceed 4". The exception to this rule is with deck stairs, where the triangle -
shaped gap between the tread, riser, and bottom rail mustn't exceed 6".
Deck railing post spacing code requires manufactured railing posts stay within 8' of each other to
ensure railing meets strength requirements_Cit
IRC and IBC guidelines dictate strength requirements,
