Hello all can I but Balustrade that can be screwed to flat decking rather than having to fit them to the edges?
If so can you direct me to the place where I can buy them.

I reckon you could have fixing issues if you intend to screw the posts direct to the deck - putting screws in at an angle isn't the easiest or most secure way.
Often the deck posts you buy are notched to allow fixing through the side (Wickes 548-084) but maybe metal posts (Wickes 194-510) could be something to consider.

You could try bolt down Metposts HERE and use some decking off-cuts to wrap around and disguise them. Ideally your posts should go through the deck and be connected to it's framework to offer far more stability.
If you go down the Metpost route, they are usually available at most DIY stores.
