Parts of a Trex Railing System

A deck railing is composed of several key components that work together to provide both function and style.
Typically, it includes a top and bottom rail, sturdy posts, post sleeves, post caps, and balusters.

1. Post Sleeves: Post sleeves slide over the posts, adding a decorative element while protecting the post material. They are available in various colors and finishes to enhance the style of your railing.

2a. Post Caps: Post caps are installed on top of each post sleeve, providing a finished look and protecting the posts from moisture and debris. They come in a range of styles.

2b. Posts: Posts are the vertical supports anchored to the deck floor, providing structural integrity to the railing. They are spaced along the length of the railing to support both the top and bottom rails.

3a. Top Rail: The top rail is the uppermost part of the railing that runs horizontally along the length of the deck providing a sturdy handhold.

3b Bottom Rail: Located at the lower part of the railing system, the bottom rail holds the balusters or infill in place and helps to stabilize the entire railing. 

4. Balusters: Balusters are the vertical elements that run between the top and bottom rails, creating a barrier and adding style to the railing. They can be traditional square shapes or modern round designs, depending on the aesthetic you prefer.
