A walkway system comprising:

• first and second bracket assemblies for attachment to a building surface in a longitudinally displaced relationship therebetween, each of said bracket assemblies presenting a depending support member;
• a horizontal support brace for providing underlying support to a walkway in extension along the building surface;
• means for attaching said horizontal support brace at a position along a length of each said depending support member and in normal extension therefrom;
• a vertical support member;
• means for mounting said vertical support member at a selectable position along a length of each said horizontal support brace for placement of the walkway between said vertical support member and said depending support member and atop said horizontal brace;
• at least one hand rail;
• and
• means on each said vertical support member for releasably engaging a portion of said at least one hand rail therein, wherein to present a hand rail vertically spaced from said walkway and adjacent one side thereof.

A walkway system comprising:

• first and second bracket assemblies for attachment to a building structure each of said bracket assemblies presenting a support member upon said attachment;
• means for releasably attaching said bracket assemblies to a building structure in a longitudinally spaced-apart relationship therebetween;
• a horizontal support for an overlying walkway structure;
• means for releasably attaching said horizontal support to each bracket assembly in a selectable position along a length of each bracket assembly support member;
• at least one hand rail;
• a pair of vertical support bars for said at least one hand rail;
• means for releasably attaching one of said vertical hand rail support bars at a selectable position along a length of each horizontal support whereby to present a walkway bounded by at least one hand rail.
