A small summary for whoever wonders like me: the depth is 24", the diameter is a little over 12", both can be very dependent on the local code.
Those simpson anchors might fail inspection, you need a tension tie on the top of two galv or ss 1/2" thru bolts from rim/band through guard post to adjacent blocking + joist. Especially over 30" deck height.
Me, who wished all pressure treated wood looked as perfect as this, instead of the garbage available
Too many and too long of commercials. Why have a commercial inside a commercial . Oh yea, greedy VP said this commercial needs to make a profit. I will learn to frame my deck somewhere else.
Why did you bury the post and not post to peer brackets? Won’t the post rot or decay faster?
Thanks for the information
We appreciate customers like you for watching!
F#@K your Municipality lol
Excellent training. My plan calls for triple 2x10s on a 6x6 like you did. Is this legal/good practice since there will only be 1.5" left to bolt onto? Thank you.
Devon and linzy have done an excellent video,very informative and Devon explains the job very well and is easy to understand. I have noticed that they did not have an overhang on the first step coming down off the deck. I understand that this is a code violation because the very first run down will be 3/4” short because the run is measured horizontally down from the step above.
I understand "code" mandates gap between deck and pool edge, BUT what about space needed to get winter cover over top and down side of pool ? Pools in north are actually covered more then half the year.
Excellent presentation for installation of deck rail posts including how to handle out of plumb posts and using temporary boards to hold post and blocking. Sigh. This gets a fair bit harder to do when the deck is already down and you are replacing half cut outside fascia mounted posts with full inside posts.
a couple more stringers and wouldn’t even need a tread or a face
My porch has two Posts 10 ft apart and one 4 ft apart. Each end of the railing, top and bottom, would attach to the post. Its a small Porch but my husband is disabled and needs the railing to keep him from falling off the porch. If i had a 10 ft section I could do these myself. 😢
Hi, Thanks for reaching out to Trex! My apologies as we do not have any 10' railing sections. I attached a copy of our 2024 railing guide for your review.

Don’t tighten the hidden fasteners until The next board is put in place . Makes it easier to fit them together .
Miter cut the corners to hide the ugly edge!!
still need to hide the cut deck board to the picture frame board. leaving a gap you can see the raw edge
Hi! Thanks for reaching out to Trex! Feel free to contact us at our customer care department at 1-800-289-8739 or email us at customercare@trex.com for some tips on hiding exposed edges. -Trex Customer Care Team
How tall should the post be from the deck floor up?
This is a great tutorial. Thanks . I’ve been looking for this
Is it best to use ground contact pressure treated lumber for the framework?or just pressure treated?
Hi, Thanks for reaching out on this! We do not have a specific recommendation on this. If you need additional assistance please contact us at our customer care department Monday through Friday between 8am-5pm eastern standard time. -Trex Customer Care Team
I have many doubts and you explained so well!!!! I understand everything!!!! I will do my own deck stair for my home. Thanks master!!!! Blessings!!!
Talks more than works. We all already know the operating modes
My deck is going to be a walk way between front deck and back.4 foot by 24 foot....same concept?
Hi! Check out the link below for help with building your deck. It features our deck designer tool.-Trex Customer Care Team www.trex.com/build-your-deck/planyourdeck/deck-designer/
Very meticulous and easy to understand, Thanks
Way to much time , I would have had the pist already set and would not ever anchor to the house.Wrong wrong, wrong
Excellent detail. Thank you.
You have exposed cuts on your stairs. Maybe you could bevel the riser cuts on the fascia and bevel the riser board ends for a clean finish. You're to good to have this kind of fail. No exposed cuts allowed my friend.
🤦♂️
Great tips!
Great video. One question, the beams of the middle deck are attached to the posts of the upper deck using hangers. How would you attach the beams of the middle deck to the upper deck if the beams were run perpendicular instead of horizontal?
To further understand the installation, I've attached the light installation guide that can help you further understand the process of the installation.

@@TheTrexCo I am sorry, but that does not help at all. The link has to do with installing lights which I snot what I am asking. In the video at 2:18. He is attaching a beam to the upper deck post using a hangar HUC210-2Z. My question is, if the beam needed to be turned 90 degrees because the deck boards were running away from the house, how would he make the connection?
One of many hokey ways to attach different manufacturers rail systems. This system is expensive and rattles when you walk
You don’t mention the fact that the brackets are fixed angle. You’re making it sound like there’s a choice.
Great thorough video But, I'm confused about how to install the breaker board joist.s Are they two double 2 x 8 joist hangers? how do you have clearance to screw/ nail joist hangers to the ledger board??thanks for clarifying this
Hi, Thanks for reaching out about Trex Decking! Please see link below for assistance with the breaker board installation.-Trex Customer Care Team online.flippingbook.com/view/63974767/19/
So about the handrails?
Where's the video on how to build the deck frame?
Hi there! Here's the link to one of our Trex academy videos on building the deck frame: ua-cam.com/video/glRLIOOeb-o/v-deo.html
Is it possible to install a cocktail rail on top of the Enhance Railing? If so, what additional parts are needed?
HI there! You can certainly install a cocktail railing on the Enhance railing. You would be using the 3/4" screws that are included in the kit to fasten the board to the railing. Beyond that you shouldn't need any additional hardware. Keep in mind that you cannot use the Enhance line of decking as a cocktail rail due to the scallops on the bottom of the boards so you would need to choose a board from the Select, Transcend, or Signature lines of decking.
Very helpful, however, at 7:33 when you're showing a small gap to catch the boards as they reach the breaker board... how do you properly attach joists to the ledger so close together? Is there a special bracket?
Hello Ksiverd, I hope this message finds you well today. With those joists and blocking joists so close together, it is an interesting time getting all the necessary hardware that close. We started from the inside out and installed a joist hanger on the joist and attached it to the ledger. Then the next joist we cut just slightly shorter (about an 1/8”). Then we installed a Simpson Strong Tie L-70z onto the joist and had it face away from the adjacent joist. We then installed the nails through the L-70z into the ledger as it was outside the edges of the nearest joist hanger. Then the process was repeated on the opposite side. Please let us know if you have any additional questions or if I may be of further assistance. Kindly, Jaclyn Goodrich Trex Customer Care
She could build a deck for me anytime!
Hearing protection to hammer a rod into soft ground! Really!
what type of fasteners do you use to fasten the flashing to the house?
for the bottom flashing, shouldn't you leave a pencil width gap below the ledger board? so that there isn't water resting in contact with the bottom of it
why can the joists not conflict the rail post locations?
Complete lie!!
Every online deck building program only has one 2x10 beam with a deck at a 14 foot depth and 2x8's as joists. So why the 2 beams and attached at the ledger?
Hi there! Thanks for reaching out. We chose to do 2 beams for two reasons. The customer requested absolutely no bounce as they have parties with quite a few people. Additionally, the two beams also gave us the opportunity to shoot multiple shots for our how-to videos. You could follow your local guide for a 2x8 or 2x10 to span and only have one beam if you desired. ~ Trex Customer Care Team
Why the two beams with a ledger on a span less than 14'?
nice bakery
How do you determine how many "ROWS" of beams are required? My understanding of this project and size of deck I thought only one beam would be required but the deck is being built with 2 beams.
online.flippingbook.com/view/171224276/42/#zoom=true For your reference on page. 42 you will find all the required joist spans. If you have any additional questions feel free to reach out.-Trex customer care. 1(800)-289-8739
suppose.... you wanted to make this deck example handicap accessible? Where would you plan putting access ramps into this design? I realize this was prob. not part of the scope of this deck, so if you were designing with this in mind- what could you think of that might be important?
Since wheelchairs can get caught on slight dips in a surface, we recommend using a joist spacing of 12" on center when constructing the ramp. At 12" spacing the support per chair wheel would be 125 lbs. The shorter span will provide a stiffer surface Trex products have proved successful for both walking surfaces and means of egress. We do not have ramp specs to share, however you can visit the following site for information. www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Wheelchair-Ramp. Please check with your local building office for local codes and building permits. If you have any other questions feel free to reach out.-Trex customer care 1(800)-289-8739
