How do you attach a wood railing to a concrete patio so that it's sturdy?
I would need to know a little more about how you plan on building it? Are you attaching the railing to the side of the patio? Or, is it short and you want to attach it to …the top of the cement? I would assume you're going to attach it on top of the patio. If so, use Metal Post Holders. That's the best way to secure it. You'll need Concrete drill bits, a Hammer Drill or a very powerful drill, bolts and washers, socket wrench or socket bits, tape measure, and a few other things depending on what your plans are. You could pick up the Post Holders at any local hardware store. You just attach the post holders to the concrete with the bolts where you plan on putting your posts. Then secure the posts to the Post Holders. Nice, tight, safe railing!! I hope this helps you and if you'd like to give me more detail, I'd be more than happy to help you further. Good Luck!
