What type of hardware does this come with? How does it attach to the railing? I live in a windy environment.

I assume you are asking about the planter? I bought it last year; don't recall that it came with any hardware. The railing top is supposed to fit in the middle section of the planter and that is supposed to keep it in place. Unfortunately, my railing was much narrower than the opening on the planter. I had to get pieces of wood and then glue them on the planter to make up the space. After adding the dirt, I secured a number of shims to ensure a tight fit. I discovered that I had to adjust the shims frequently throughout the summer. Also, because the middle section of the planter sits on the railing, the planting depth at that point is quite shallow. Hope that helps. I assume you are asking about the planter? I bought it last year; don't recall that it came with any hardware.

If the top rail is a standard 2x6, the planter will sit there without any additional hardware or shims. The center section of the planter fits perfectly on the rail, and the two projections from the bottom keep the planter from sliding. It works well.

It does not come with any hardware. We screwed through the center in 2 spots & drilled into the railing. We put some stones, purchased by the bag, at the hardware store, added potting soil & flowers. We love the look. They have winter our storms, snow & wind. No problem

I too have to assume that you mean the deck railing planter. These planters come shaped so that they sit over the top of the railing and are quite secure just like that. Mine feel fine and that's the great part!

No hardware needed. There is a groove built into the planter which fits nearly perfectly to the railing you are going to use. Pay attention to the measurements they give youso you know if it will fit.

U-bolts are a good method. You also might want to drill a hole thru poles both and insert a long, locking bolt w/nut to avoid minor movement in windy conditions.

I do not remember what type of hardware. We pre drill holes in the wall studs, very easy to hang. Highly recommend the rack.

We did not anchor it to the ground . We drilled stainless screw into a wooden deck and then used attached straps to the outside loops and anchored them to give it wind stability.

It mounts with straps that go around existing rails (factory roof rails). You will not need to buy or use any additional items for this product. It's also very stable and holds snug without wind flap. Other models I have seen/heard about have wind issues, not this one, it is very solid and heavy duty.

I used 4 Pressure treated 4x4s. I drilled a hole thru it and used a bolt with an eye on one end to attach it. I have clips and small rope for putting it up. The wind can blow where I live, so I did not want it up all the time. I made it easy to take down and put away.

On windy days I roll mine up. I don' think the metal holding the top are strong enough to hold up to higher winds. I fastened the frame to my deck rails with tie downs and that solved the problem with the wind. This winter I have kept it rolled up. Later on when the weather gets better, I will unroll it and fasten it to my deck. It makes nice shade in the summer.

I did NOT need to use all of the included pieces of the brackets to hang the planters over my narrow iron balcony railing. I suppose if you were to attached a board or rail of some kind to your house, leaving a bit of space for the bracket to hang onto, it would work great for you the same way it did for me. (The piece I did not use, was the part used for wider wooden deck rails). Hope this helps you. Sorry for delay in answering. I LOVE the planters and have not had any problems with them in heavy downpours and/or wind.

I wouldn't recommend this for a deck railing - it's more of a window box. Have you tried planters with brackets that simply swing over a deck?

There are two clips that need to be screwed in to a deck, railing, etc. The bottom of the shade has 2 bungee cords that then get attached to those anchors. The bungee allows for some "give"I in the wind. We were quite happy with our shade last summer. We're about to put it up this year now that angle of the sun is hitting our porch in the afternoons.

Not sure, I did not use the railing. I moved the hinges to the sides and used them as french doors on a bookcase. Works great for this!

It comes with circled hardware sewn into the material. You have to purchase whatever you hang or hook into. I'd love to send you a photo with my I-phone if that will help. It sure did cut down on our heat this summer!

the way my railing was on my deck I couldn't mount them the traditional way, I mounted under the railing, it worked great, but you have to be precise in your measurements, mark it well, have someone help you, they can hold. If you send me a cell phone number, I will take a picture for you and send it

It comes with a bracket that you bolt to the deck. The bolts that come with the unit are junk - go to the hardware store and get good ones. Mine mounted easily because my pontoon has the aluminum deck. Before drilling holes, clamp the bracket on the deck and make sure the prop doesn't hit anything when the unit is rotated, and that the unit can be retracted easily Sit in your fishing seat and pretend you are on the lake. Try lowering the unit, raising it, and controlling the unit. Once you are happy with it, drill the holes & mount it.

All the installation kit is is a pair of plastic clamps that hold onto the railing. A wood bar attaches to the clamps with screws, and that piece of wood is how the fence attaches. As long as the metal railing is thick enough, there won't be a problem. And even if it's too thin, you could add a piece of rubber or padding to essentially make the railing thick enough to accept the minimum clamp allowance. It's an extremely simple design, and one you could easily makeshift with a 1"x2"x3' pine board and two clamps from the hardware store.

William -- the brackets are square with a little bit of a hook on the end and appear to be designed to fit dimensional lumber (not round). The railing on my deck is a 5/4" x 6" (nominal 5-1/2") deck rail and it fits perfectly. Now, if you are handy and can fashion something to enable it to strap around a round rail, then it would work. Maybe a few nuts/bolts and pipe hanger strapping (comes in a coil).

I installed mine on my back deck which has a four foot wooden rail. I screwed it into the upright wooden posts. The only issue I could see is you would need to drill and use bolts instead of screws if you are attaching to metal posts.
