According to HUD guidelines and most local building codes, a deck that is more than 30 inches above grade typically requires a railing for safety. The railing height usually needs to be at least 36 inches high. However, these guidelines can vary based on local building codes, so it’s important to check with your local jurisdiction to ensure compliance with specific FHA requirements and local regulations.
