Question 1

Does this work on exposed aggregate pool deck?

Accepted Answer

I just put it in on mine.  It is much harder to do on this type of surface.  First you have to measure out the area and use a cement grinder (luckily I had one... you can by a really cheap one for $30 at Lowes or HD) to grind down the area flat under where the main plate will go.  Unfortunately, there is no way to be super precise with this so you will have some flat places exposed around where the plate goes.  Not horrible, but obvious if you know what you are looking at.  Next, the hardest part... getting the holes to line up and the hold drill to go in clean and straight.  You have to use an impact drill.  I tried a regular drill with the same concrete bit and got almost nowhere.  With the impact drill even, though, the problem is that the bit tends to glance off of the little pebbles of the exposed aggregate.  Once the initial 1/4 inch is started, it isn't much of an issue, but that first part can be very problematic.  I used a hardened still pointed pick and a hammer to start a hole.  You could probably use a much smaller bit and work up to the large bit, but I only had the one bit supplied in the kit.  If the holes aren't perfect, you will have to expand the holes by pressing the drill sideways against the inside of the holes expanding them.  If you have to expand a lot (like I did in one hole), you will have to back fill it with something around the mollies (I used very thin finishing nails).  This filler is hidden so it doesn't matter.  Once mounted, you might have to take it all out again to level the surface since you hand grinded it (that includes picking out all of the back fill material).  I had to do that 3 times to get it level, so don't do a full tightening until you are sure it is flush mounted and the mollies are grabbing.  All in all, it worked out.  Very secure and looks fine.  Took me about 90-120 minutes after I had all the right tools (about twice as long as it is supposed to, but still workable).  Hope that helps.

The entire length of the screw, about 2 3/4" inches deep

Question 3

Accepted Answer

This rail can be mounted about 10 inches from the pools edge

Question 4

My pool coping is 12" brick.  Can I mount 2 anchors in brick and 2 in concrete to get railing closer to pool and maximize rail overhang on the pool?

Accepted Answer

Can't see why not. As long as your brink and concrete are even you should be good.
