Did think of that but the bottom rail is bolted to the footing and I set the threaded rod (attached to a plate) back from the edge so no chance of the bolts pulling out of the concrete. The studs are held not just with nails, 75mm screws, nails, hard as nails, also studs are set into the bottom rail via mortise. With the easterly winds we have where I am in summer I wanted to make certain it was solid as a rock.
