Abstract
A railing system comprising positioning systems is provided. The railing system includes one or more rails and one or more posts. When the rails and the posts are connected, the positioning systems limit the movement of the posts relative to the rails. The positioning system may include a projection on the rail and a recess on the post, and the projection and the recess cooperate such that the movement of the post relative to the rail is limited.
Claims14
A kit for assembly of a railing system, comprising:
- an upper rail member that defines an upper rail cavity;
- a lower rail member that defines a lower rail cavity;
- an upper continuous projection extending from the upper rail member, the upper continuous projection disposed outside the upper rail cavity;
- a lower continuous projection extending from the lower rail member, the lower continuous projection disposed outside the lower rail cavity;
- and
- a plurality of posts for disposition between the upper and lower rail members;
- wherein for each one of the posts, the post is configured to independently receive the upper continuous projection so that lateral displacement of the post, relative to the upper rail member, is restricted, and also the lower continuous projection so that lateral displacement of the post, relative to the lower rail member, is restricted.
