   • Balusters are the slim, vertical pillars installed either between or on the side of top and bottom deck rails. Their main architectural purpose is safety; preventing family, friends, and pets from dangerous falls. Yet function aside, balusters can also grant a dash of classical charm or an entirely fresh, modern look to your outdoor space.

   How wide should a deck baluster be?

   • A general rule of thumb is that the spacing of balusters should be about 1.5 times the width of your baluster. So if you have 2” balusters, then a 3” gap is aesthetically pleasing. Spacing deck balusters that are a material other than wood is no different.
