Railing made of prefabricated standard components

A railing mounted on a building structure, comprising:

• a plurality of prefabricated standard substantially identical transversely spaced upright railing rods having relatively long shanks secured to said structure, and bent relatively short upper ends on said shanks;
• respective prefabricated standard and substantially identical connecting elements forming handrail segments each connecting one of said upper ends to the shank of a next railing rod, each of said handrail segments having a longitudinally extending blind bore opening at one extremity of the respective handrail segment and slidably receiving a respective short upper end, and a transverse throughgoing bore at an opposite extremity of each handrail segment slidably receiving a shank of the respective next railing rod;
• respective prefabricated standard connecting panels each received between two of said railing rods and connected to the shanks thereof, said handrail segments having lengths substantially corresponding to a width of said connecting panels and bridging a spacing between successive railing rods and corresponding to said width;
• a respective mounting plate on said structure for each of said shanks;
• a pair of welded pins projecting from each mounting plate;
• a respective annular holder threaded onto each of said pins and receiving the shank of the respective railing rod whereby two of said holders receive each shank each of said holders having a locking screw engaging the respective shank;
• and
• means including vertical and horizontal oblong holes traversed by respective screws and formed in said locking plates for mounting said locking plates on said structure.
