Post Holder
This invention relates to railings, and more particularly to post holders for hollow posts. The post holders of the present invention comprise a shaft extending from a base, and in use a post slides over the shaft of the post holder.
Self-supporting fence or baluster shelf bracket
The self-supporting fence or baluster shelf bracket is a device that is adapted to attach onto and support itself perpendicularly with respect to a fence picket or baluster. Moreover, the self-supporting fence or baluster shelf bracket is adapted to interface with the fence picket or baluster provided the fence picket or baluster is vertically oriented. The self-supporting fence or baluster shelf bracket includes a shelf-supporting arm and a back support member that are parallel with one another, and translate relative to one another via a pair of lever arms. Installed, the fence picket or baluster is adapted to be sandwiched between the shelf-supporting arm and the back support member. The shelf-supporting arm is elongated and able to receive and support a shelf member thereon and at a perpendicular orientation with respect to the fence picket or baluster.
PIN
A pin having a tool engagement portion and a resiliently deformable cover arranged over the tool engagement portion. The resiliently deformable cover is operable to deform from a first position to a second position to allow for the engagement of the tool engagement portion with a tool. The tool engagement portion is substantially concealed when the cover is in the first position, reducing the opportunities for dirt ingress. A tool may be used to deform the cover and allow the tool to engage with the tool engagement portion such that rotation of the tool causes co-rotation of the pin.
HORIZONTAL CABLE RAIL BARRIER
A barrier panel includes a first vertical rail and a second vertical rail disposed spaced apart from the first vertical rail. A plurality of cables are each coupled at one end to the first vertical rail and coupled at a second end to the second vertical rail. The barrier panel includes a top rail and a bottom rail. The plurality of cables are disposed between and run parallel to the top and bottom rails.
MOUNTING FIXTURE OF A CONNECTION FIXTURE
A mounting fixture for interconnecting at least two tubular members, the mounting fixture including: at least one first connection section including a first connection aperture for receipt of a connector configured to secure a receiving element to the mounting fixture via a second connection aperture of the receiving element; a mounting sleeve configured to be secured around a section of a tubular member, the mounting sleeve comprises at least two interconnectable fixture sections, each fixture section comprising a portion of the mounting fixture which includes a section of the mounting sleeve and a portion of the first connection section; and at least one connecting arrangement for interconnecting adjacent fixture sections to form the mounting sleeve, each connecting arrangement being located on or within an inner side of each fixture section of the mounting sleeve to interconnect each fixture section to an adjoining fixture section at a location on or within an inner side of the mounting sleeve.
FRAME RAIL ASSEMBLIES AND INTERLOCKING FRAME RAIL SYSTEMS
A frame rail assembly for a boat dock structure includes a frame rail member and a removable resilient rub-rail member. The frame rail member includes a first side configured for securing the frame rail member to a side of the boat dock structure; a second side opposing the first side; a first channel extending along a length of the frame rail member; and a second channel below the first channel, the second channel extending along the length of the frame rail member. An interlocking frame rail system for boat dock structures includes a first frame rail member, a second frame rail member, and an upper connector member extending along at least a portion of a length of the first frame rail member and at least a portion of the length of a second frame rail member.
Fence Picket Alignment Tool and Method of Use
An alignment tool for aligning and installing a plurality of pickets on a fence segment. The alignment tool comprises a body portion, and a picket level indicator. One or more upper guides and a lower guide assembly can be separated by a guide gap. The guide gap is at least as wide as a first cross member height of a first cross member of the fence segment. The alignment tool is configured to selectively attach and slide along the first cross member of the fence segment and position the picket level indicator at a selected height relative to the first cross member. The one or more upper guides and the lower guide assembly are configured to slide a forward direction and a reverse direction on the first cross member.
FENCE DEVICES
An example detachable device comprises a body with a transitional surface, a back portion, and a side portion. The body is to be affixed to a rail of a fence structure with the back portion in proximity to a surface of the rail. The side portion of the body is to be arranged proximate to a post portion of the fence structure.
PREFABRICATED MODULAR FENCING WITH ADVANTAGEOUSLY-SHAPED CONNECTORS
A prefabricated modular fencing system comprises first and second fence panels, each panel having opposing side ends. Each side end carries outboard connectors. The connectors have upper sides defining one of a concavity and a convexity and have lower sides defining the other of a concavity and a convexity, and the connectors define a bore within each convexity. The convexity of a connector carried by the first fence panel may be complementary with and interfitted within the concavity of another connector carried by the second fence panel, to assemble the first and second fence panels together. A post is disposed through the bores of interfitted connectors.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL IN-FILL INSTALLATION
Disclosed is a fence system. The fence system, comprising: a first post; a second post, wherein each of the first post and the second post comprises a first set of ribs and a second set of ribs; a lower rail, wherein a first end of the lower rail is adapted to terminate at a face of the first set of ribs of the first post and a second end of the lower rail is adapted to terminate at a face of the first set of ribs of the second post; and an upper rail, wherein the lower rail and the upper rail are positioned to receive one or more infill boards, such that the one or more infill boards are adapted to terminate at a face of the second set of ribs of the first post and at a face of the second set of ribs of the second post.
