Abstract:
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.
Abstract:
A railing bracket system includes a cup that has a cup bottom wall and two opposed cup side walls. The cup is adapted to receive an end of a railing member. A cap has a first cap wall disposed between two opposed cap side walls and a tab extending from at least one side wall. The cap is adapted to cover the cup.
Abstract:
A deck framing system includes a ledger that has a joist support wall, a web wall extending perpendicularly from the joist support wall, and an overhang wall extending perpendicularly from the web wall and disposed parallel to the joist support wall. Each of a plurality of joist support brackets is configured to be coupled to the web wall of the ledger and includes at least one ledger attachment wing and a joist support portion that includes a pair of opposed lateral walls and a bracket web wall. Each of a plurality of joists includes at least one lateral wall and a deck support wall that extend from the at least one lateral wall. The at least one lateral wall is configured to be secured to one of the opposed lateral walls of the joist support portion.
Abstract:
A post cap assembly includes a base plate with a floor, an upper peripheral wall extending from the floor in a first direction and a lower peripheral wall extending from the floor in a second direction opposite the first direction. The base plate is configured to be secured to a post having a square-shaped cross section. A cover that has a pyramidal shape is configured to be coupled to the base plate, where the base plate includes at least two tabs that each have a through hole configured to receive a fastener. The base plate includes a plurality of rectangular-shaped through holes extending through the floor of the base plate and disposed proximate the upper peripheral wall of the base plate.
Abstract:
A barrier panel is formed of a first rail member and a second rail member with at least one vertical support member mounted to and extending between the first rail member and second rail member. The first rail member includes first openings spaced apart along its length. The second rail member includes second openings spaced apart along its length. Vertical cables are mounted to and extend between the first rail member and second rail member. A first end of each vertical cable is secured within one of the first openings and a second end of each vertical cable is secured within an opposite one of the second openings.
Abstract:
An accent lighting source utilizes a light source having a metal heat dissipating housing with an aperture within which at least one point light source, such as from an LED, is mounted. The aperture is closed by a lens/diffuser structure. The light source is mounted within a housing for the accent light source. The housing has a design configuration that supports one or more of a preferred accent lighting installation on a horizontal or vertical surface. Exemplary horizontal surfaces include the top of a post member, a deck surface, a stair surface or an overhanging or ceiling surface. Exemplary vertical surfaces include a stair riser and the side of post or wall surface.

Abstract:
A railing bracket includes a cup with a bottom wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall disposed opposite the first side wall. The first side wall defines a first through hole configured to receive a fastener. A cap has a top wall, a first lateral wall, a second lateral wall, wherein the cap has a U-shape configured to expose the bottom wall of the cup, the first lateral wall configured to cover a head of the fastener. The cap is configured to be snap fit to the cup in an overhead configuration and an underneath configuration, the overhead configuration includes the top wall of the cap disposed above the bottom wall of the cup and the first and second side walls of the cup disposed between the top wall of the cap and the bottom wall of the cup, and the underneath configuration includes the top wall of the cap disposed underneath the bottom wall of the cup.
Abstract:
A deck frame includes at least one perimeter support member that has a joist support wall, and a web wall extending perpendicularly from the joist support wall. A plurality of first attachment tabs extend from the web wall and are disposed spaced apart along the length of the at least one perimeter support member. A plurality of second attachment tabs extend from the web wall and are disposed spaced apart along the length of the at least one perimeter support member. Each one of a plurality of joists has a first lateral wall and a second lateral wall disposed opposite the first lateral wall. One of the plurality of first attachment tabs is configured to be secured to the first lateral wall, and one of the plurality of second attachment tabs is configure to be secured to the second lateral wall of each one of the plurality of joists.
Abstract:
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 rial and pivotably couples the plurality of pickets to the first inner rail.
