• providing a box tube member including an inner channel and a lower slot;
• sliding a channel member over the box tube member;
• inserting a sliding mounting member into the inner channel of the box tube member;
• inserting a first end portion of a support leg through the lower slot of the box tube member and through a lower opening of the sliding mounting member;
• screwing a threaded end of the first end portion of the support leg into an upper threaded opening of the sliding mounting member;
• adjusting a position of the sliding mounting member within the inner channel of the box tube member;
• and
• securing a second end portion of the support leg to a floor.

A protective system, comprising:

• a first rail assembly;
• a second rail assembly oriented perpendicular to the first rail assembly;
• a corner assembly connecting the first rail assembly to the second rail assembly;
• wherein each of the first rail assembly and the second rail assembly comprise:
• a box tube member including an inner channel and a lower slot;
• a channel member configured to slide over the box tube member;
• a sliding mounting member configured to slide within the inner channel of the box tube member;
• a support leg having a first end portion configured to connect to the sliding mounting member and a second end portion configured to be secured to a floor;
• wherein the corner assembly comprises:
• a first short rail connected to the floor;
• a second short rail connected to the floor and oriented perpendicular to the first short rail, wherein the first short rail and the second short rail are both shorter than rails of the first rail assembly and of the second rail assembly;
