Show me the planters and the deck rail you want to hang them on. There were too many and different styles on HD.com for me to stand a chance.

Ours are a saddle type planter that just sits on some rails but I had to mod it a bit for our style.

The brackets we had are like these https://www.homedepot.ca/product/peak-p ... 1000466988 They are $9.98 a piece at the other HD store but only 5 in stock (we need 6).

The planters are your usual tray type planters about 36" long x 4" wide x 3" tall with matching water tray (which is loose).

Our deck railing is homemade (assuming) wood w/ 2x4 cap and 2x2 pickets.

Can't send pics till tonight.

Geez. Those are pricey.

You can make your own minus the cute little curl on the front. But if you don't mind putting a few holes in you deck rail I would just use a large angle iron for the the drop and a small one attached to bottom leg to trap the basket. Like this:

Thanks Colbyt for the idea!

Let the mouse do your searching for the angles. They do come in weird sizes like 6x8 but a lot of stores only stock the evens, 6*6, 8*8 etc.

Well, with you two fidgeting around with brackets and such, I went out, on a perfect golf day and played 9 holes. Just enough to get the golf fix in. It was a good round also! Too bad neither of the gutter snipes were out there with me to validate such a nice round on such a nice day.

Angles purchased.

Rained this am but it is supposed to brighten up this afternoon so hopefully the planter bracket install project gets done today.

Run them through the dish washer before / if you plan to paint them.

A quick, but happy 4th to my American friends!

Bah Humbug. Oh wait wrong holiday.

I really hard to force myself to not get up and set off a couple of string of firecrackers at about 5 AM.

Where you been hiding?
