Railing system

A railing system comprising:

• spaced parallel upper and lower rails, each with top and bottom sides and supported between spaced upright posts;
• a plurality of parallel upright rod balusters extending between the rails and each said upright rod baluster having a constant cross-sectional shape and comprising an elongate intermediate portion having opposing elongate upper and lower bent rod ends which extend for a distance and at an angle away from said intermediate portion of said rod balusters in the direction of extension of said rails;
• upper and lower elongate channels respectively extending with said upper and lower rails, each channel having an open side which is respectively secured against the bottom side of said upper rail and the top side of said lower rail, thereby providing an enclosed elongate passage in said channels;
• spaced apertures in said channels receiving said elongate bent rod ends therethrough with said bent ends received in said channel passages in axial alignment in the direction of extension of said rails for retention therein, said spaced apertures dimensioned to be sufficiently large enough to permit insertion of and slidable passage of said upright rod balusters freely therethrough along the entire length of each said upright rod baluster along said intermediate portion between said upper and lower bent rod ends.
