New Front Porch Railing
I am going to remove my old wood railing that encloses my front porch
area. I am going to install vinyl. How can I install brass house numbers on the vinyl posts? If I nail them on, could I split the vinyl? If I glue them on, what type of glue should I use that will also allow me to remove the house numbers at some stage when they deteriorate and need to be replaced? Many thanks. Kate |

Kate Those brass house numbers usually come with brass screws to attach them. Use the screws. On plastic fencing, all attachments are made with screws. -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY In the original Orange County. Est. 1683 To email, remove the double zeroes after @ |
