A security fence includes a pair of posts and a plurality of rails supported by the pair of posts and disposed vertically spaced apart. Each rail includes a bottom wall and an upper wall, each defining a plurality of spaced apart openings. A plurality of pickets are horizontally spaced apart along the plurality of rails, each picket extends through a respective bottom opening and a respective upper opening of each rail. A slide lock bar is disposed within at least one of the plurality of rails and is supported by the bottom wall of the one of the plurality of rails. The slide lock bar traverses the plurality of pickets and is received by a notch in each picket. Engagement of the slide lock bar with the notches enables angular displacement of each picket with respect to each rail.

A deck framing system includes a perimeter support member that has a joist support wall and a web wall extending perpendicularly from the joist support wall and an overhang wall extending perpendicularly from the web wall. First and second joist support brackets include a joist support portion and a pair of attachment wings, where each one of the pair of attachment wings contacting the web wall of the perimeter support member. First and second joists each include a deck support wall and a lower wall. The deck support walls of the first and second joists are disposed between the overhang wall and the joist support portions, and the lower walls are disposed between the joist support portions and the joist support wall.

A raking barrier panel includes a plurality of pickets and a channel member. The channel member includes a web wall and side walls extending from the web wall and a first rib extending from the first side wall, where the web wall defines a plurality of spaced apart openings, and each opening receives a respective one of the plurality of pickets. A first inner rail is disposed on a first side of the plurality of pickets, and a second inner rail is disposed on a second side of the plurality of pickets opposite the first side, where the second inner rail is separate from the first inner rail. A plurality of fasteners is received through the first inner rail and pivotably couples the plurality of pickets to the first inner rail.

Raking barrier panel

A rail panel includes a first rail and a second rail. The first rail includes a first pair of side walls, a first perimeter wall disposed orthogonally to the first pair of side walls, and a pair of internal walls extending from the first perimeter wall and disposed parallel to the first pair of side walls. The first perimeter wall defines a plurality of first cable holes spaced apart along the length of the first perimeter wall. The second rail includes a second pair of side walls, and a second perimeter wall disposed orthogonally to the second pair of side walls, the second perimeter wall defining a plurality of second cable holes disposed spaced apart along the length of the second perimeter wall. A plurality of vertical cables extend from the first rail to the second rail, where a first end of each of the plurality of vertical cables extends through a respective first cable hole and a second end of each of the plurality of vertical cables extends through a respective second cable hole. A plurality of threaded swage fittings are each coupled to a respective first end of one of the plurality of vertical cables, where each threaded swage fitting is received between the pair of internal walls of the first rail such that the pair of internal walls inhibit rotation of the threaded swage fitting. A rigid support member extends from the first rail to the second rail.

A raking barrier panel includes a plurality of pickets, each defining a pivot pin hole. A channel member includes a web wall defining a plurality of spaced apart openings that each receives a respective one of the plurality of pickets therethrough. A plurality of picket pivot members are in snap-fit engagement with the channel member, and each one of the plurality of picket pivot members includes a pair of opposed end walls and a pair of opposed side walls together forming a box-like shape. A pivot pin extends from at least one of the pair of opposed side walls and is received by the pivot pin hole of a respective one of the plurality of pickets to define a pivot axis with respect to the channel member.

A stair assembly includes at least one joist comprising an upper wall, a first lateral wall extending from the upper wall, and a second lateral wall extending from the upper wall. At least one stair step support bracket includes a tray support wall, a first side wall extending from the tray support wall, and a second side wall extending from the tray support wall. The first and second side walls define a pair of first front aligned positioning holes configured to receive a first set pin and a pair of first rear aligned positioning holes configured to receive a second set pin. The pairs of first front and rear aligned positioning holes disposed such that when the first and second set pins received therethrough contact the upper wall of the at least one joist, the tray support wall is positioned at a first rise dimension.

A stair stringer includes a pair of joists each including an upper wall, a first lateral wall extending from the upper wall, and a second lateral wall extending from the upper wall. At least one stair step support bracket includes a tray support wall, a first side wall extending from the tray support wall, a second side wall extending from the tray support wall, and a front wall extending between the first side wall and the second side wall. The at least one stair step support bracket is configured to set on the upper wall of one of the pair of joists and the first side wall extending downward beyond the upper wall of the one joist in position to receive a first fastener through the first side wall and into the first lateral wall of the one joist, and the second side wall extending downward beyond the upper wall of the one joist in position to receive a second fastener through the second side wall and into the second lateral wall of the one joist, wherein the tray support wall is level.

A deck framing system includes a perimeter support member that has a joist support wall and a web wall extending perpendicularly from the joist support wall. Each of a plurality of joist support brackets comprising an attachment portion configured to be attached to the web wall of the perimeter support member and a joist support portion. The joist support portion includes a pair of opposed lateral walls with each lateral wall configured to be attached to a corresponding lateral wall of a joist supported by the joist support wall.

A raking barrier panel includes a plurality of upright members and a rail assembly. The rail assembly is pivotally coupled to the plurality of upright members, and it includes a first inner rail disposed on a first side of the plurality of upright members. A plurality of fasteners pivotally couples the plurality of upright members to the first inner rail. A channel member includes a web portion and first and second side walls extending from the web portion.
