Abstract

An attachment system for connecting a hollow rail to a support post includes an attachment bracket with a face plate for attachment to the support post, and a distally extending internal support member for nesting within the end of the rail. To enable disposition of the rail in an orientation other than orthogonal to the face plate, a portion of the internal support member is rounded to tapered, to provide the rail with up to forty-five degree movement from the orthogonal position. The attachment system also includes a snap-on cover which connects to the attachment bracket to cover the attachment bracket and provide a more aesthetically pleasing appearance to the attachment point between the support post and the rail.
