John Dirks Jr Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 The gaps between the pickets of the railings should not exceed 4". Depending on how the railing is constructed there may also be gaps at the bottom between the pickets and the deck surface. How about the gaps between the bottom of the pickets and the deck surface? Is that measurement also 4" max? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randynavarro Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 The rule states that a 4" sphere can not pass through. This means that the space needs to be smaller than 4". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
