How many balusters come in a bundle?

I’m planning to buy balusters for my deck railing project. How many typically come in a bundle?

When purchasing balusters for your deck railing, the number you’ll find in a bundle can vary significantly based on the material, size, and manufacturer. However, a common quantity for pressure-treated wood balusters, especially those with a square shape, is typically 16 per bundle.

This packaging size is convenient for both DIY enthusiasts and contractors. It offers a good number of balusters to cover a decent section of railing while keeping the bundle manageable for handling and transport.

Factors to Consider When Determining How Many Balusters to Buy:

• Total Railing Length: Accurately measure the total length of your railing sections to estimate the number of balusters required. Remember to account for the desired spacing between balusters, which is typically around 4 inches on center to comply with building codes.
• Spare Balusters: It’s always wise to purchase a few extra balusters to accommodate any potential errors during installation or future replacements.

By carefully calculating your needs and considering the available options, you can ensure you have the right amount of balusters for your deck railing project without overbuying or facing shortages.
