Can this item be anchored (screwed into) a wooden deck?

Yes it certainly can...we did that. We did remove it off the deck for the winter and stored away the cover.

From reviews I've read from others, they have anchored it. There are holes in the bottom of the posts for that.

There is a bracket that screws into the deck or some flat surface on the deck. The surface must be about 24 in. long. It works very well.

I would say yes, I hooked mine onto a tree by adding a swivel hook. So you may have to head over to the hardware store for a swivel hook but that should do it.

I screwed it to my deck with my own wood screws. There are no screws of any kind in the package, only small stakes for anchoring in the ground.

Yes, just drill with a masonry bit and use an anchor. You can also consider glue. Also consider alternate places to mount it.

Yes you can use it on a wooden deck. We do recommend putting something under it. We sell Deck Protectors. Thank you, The Blue Rooster Co 800-303-4312

I am sure you could drill them and zip tie them. They definately need something like that if used on a deck. Keep in mind that they have metal rods between each section to hold them together. I was going to use them on my deck, but, decided to go get PVC fence section from Lowes instead. They were just too short for my use.

Anchoring the pedestal to the deck shouldn't be a problem. There is 6 or 8 holes whereby you can use the appropriate screws ( I used lag bolts) to the deck. The plate to mount the seat has variable slots for seat mounting. I would be surprised if you can't mount your seat on it. I've looked at several pedestals in Overton's catalog and they all appear to have the same mounting configuration. If your seat won't mount on this pedestal then it probably wouldn't mount on any pedestal.

We used screws on each panel through the metal into our deck, then we used metal rope with tighteners like they use for clothes lines in the corners inside and out. I tried to purchase just their anchoring kit from the company direct but the woman would not sell it to me because we didn't buy from them directly. Amazon was almost two hundred dollars cheaper to order and I got free shipping with my PRIME membership. The company charges 140.oo to ship! LOVE AMAZON.

You could but you might want to put a couple of nails to join them together so they don't fall off. Put your heavier stuff in the bottom to anchor it. That is a great idea

There's "swing hooks" that will install in the wood. I bought mine at WAL-MART

I would not just hang it with nails, I would use some clips, securely fastened, it is not light weight.

I'm not sure what material a Trex deck is made of, but it attaches to posts on either side of a doorway openning with wood screws. So the material would need to hold a screw unless you figured some other way to attach it.

It is going to have to be firmly anchored somehow. This thing is fantastic, well made, very sturdy but all the same it is a giant sail. I would not purchase it unless I had some means of anchoring it down. I myself, built mine over top my back deck and drove screws through the mounting plate through the deck planks. I suppose if you were to put each leg into a hole filled with concrete that would do well.

Probably not. It screws into the ceiling so it will need to anchor to something.

We have ours on a wooden deck and there's no problem at all. You will love this product!

As mentioned in the comment below, the stakes go through loops on each corner. Since the loops are not very long, it would be difficult to hold the castle down with sandbags alone (the loops would not reach far enough under the sandbags to utilize much of their weight). If your deck is made of planks with enough spacing between, you could use rope, toggle fasteners, etc. Regardless, I'm sure you can find a way to anchor the castle.
