Customer Reviews for Pegatha 3/4 in. Multipurpose Deck Railing Baluster Connector (10-Pack)

It was nice that the connector worked for both straight and angled deck railings. They also were nice and snug with the aluminum balusters.

These connectors are the way to go. Makes lining up the balusters easy! Highly recommend!

The product is as advertised and really easy to use.

These connectors made installing the balusters so easy. They are plastic but work really well. We used them with black balusters so if they do peak out at all you don't notice them.

Was looking for the square shape that I had purchased a year prior, but it seems they are no longer available. I had used these round connectors for my square stair balusters before, and they worked out fine being sloped and angled. I was hoping to use the square ones for the vertical balusters as in the past as I thought those might provide a little more stability as far as minimizing turning. These seem like they will work OK though, but I did intermix them with the square ones I had just to feel better about it.

Having read the reviews for the round DeckoRail connectors (which now appear to be discontinued) and how they left visible gaps when the spacing of the boards was not perfect, I decided to get these. These connectors go on easy and the balusters fit snugly. The ribbed texture of the outside helps them stay tight without being a pain to put on. I haven't done the stairs yet so I don't know how the angled part will be, but the standard direction they work great. I was able to do 3 sides of a 12 x 16 deck in less than an hour (after attaching the connectors to the boards). My order arrived in bulk packaging (not retail bags of 10). Unfortunately, there were not an equal number of screws as connectors, so I had to provide my own screws for some of them. Not a huge deal, but if you don't happen to have deck-rated screws handy, you'll have to make a trip to the store.

These connectors are easy to use and make for a neat project. We ordered a few packages but when they arrived all the connectors were in one bag. We were shorted a couple of connectors.

We installed over 150 balusters using this system including stairs. They made the work so much quicker and easier. The screws were not the best but we got them to work. We're just novice DIYers and this system worked well. I couldn't imagine putting in balusters any other way.

Smooth finish and stainless steel nailed included.

So much easier than drilling holes for balusters! My 6 year old helped me screw on these connectors, and then loved putting the balusters on them once the rail was in place. We created a 'story stick' to mark all rails so these connectors would be at a 4 1/2" spacing. Attaching them was a breeze, and the finished product looks great. I do wish that there was a way to secure the balusters to the rails midway through a run. Balusters just float on these connectors, so if your rail is slightly bowed then there is nothing to pull it into alignment. We just had to be very careful when choosing the lumber for the rails.

Overall nice product for the money. Attaching upper & lower rails to balusters may take some experimenting, but once you get it, it's fairly easy.

These were easy to use. Ordering online was a breeze, and they arrived promptly. They are just great for either a flat rail or a stair rail with installation of the bronze aluminum balusters. Don't use one without the other!

I used these to install aluminum bronze balusters on my deck railing. I spaced these 4.5" apart which worked perfectly with a 3/4" wide baluster. These were easy to install and fit the balusters perfectly. Very satisfied and will order again for my next project.

Used these connectors with the black round balusters. They eliminate the need for drilling holes for the balusters. They are easy to install and the angle side was perfect for the stairs.

We used metal balusters for our porch rail. They look much better than wood. Connectors made it easy to install balusters. Will use more of these for another deck.

These connectors made the installation of the balusters so easy.

The angled side makes it easier to line up the top rail when installing on level runs, then you can flip it over and use the angle for stairs. These came out cheaper than the ones packaged with the balusters if I bought them separately, so they worked out well. I used them on the 3/4" Aluminum round deck baluster from this site, and they fit perfectly.

These connectors make the job SO easy , dont try it without these .
