However, Trex gates are made from aluminum and each baluster is welded to provide lateral stability, negating the need for a strap hinge. Although not all gates require strap hinges, many wood and composite gates often require these straps, which must be strong enough to support its weight.The gate should open onto the deck - not onto the stairs or the ground.You can find the material list, hardware needed and tools I used below. The distance between the bottom of the gate and the decking should be no more than 4 inches when the gate is closed. In this video, I built my first composite decking using Trex composite boards.Balusters must be spaced closely enough to prevent a 4-inch sphere from passing between.For instance, a 36” rail would require a deck gate of 36 inches, whereas a 42-inch rail would require a 42-inch rail. Railing & balusters are not included with kit. Gate includes Powder Coated Aluminum Side Rails, Black Hinges, Black Latch, Adjustable Cross Brace and Misc.
