A deck system includes a baluster actuator device that moves balusters from an open position to a closed position. The movable balusters are positioned in the open position to at least partially open the baluster gaps between the stationary balusters, and the movable balusters are positioned in the closed position to close the baluster gaps between the stationary balusters. The balusters further include one or more functional modules secured to module inserts defined in the balusters.

A collapsible staircase-handrail system includes an elongated primary rail extending lengthwise between primary-rail upper and lower ends. The primary rail is pivotably mounted adjacent the staircase for angular displacement about a spatially-fixed primary-rail pivot axis between primary-rail deployed and storage positions. The handrail system further includes a primary post extending between primary-post top and bottom ends, with the primary post being pivotably mounted adjacent the staircase for angular displacement about a spatially-fixed primary-post pivot axis that extends parallel to the primary-rail pivot axis. The primary-rail deployed and storage positions are such that the primary-rail upper end is disposed at, respectively, higher and lower elevations. Similarly, the primary-post pivots between deployed and storage positions defined such that the primary-post top end is disposed at, respectively, higher and lower relative elevations. The primary rail and primary post can selectively couple in order to mutually maintain one another in their respective deployed positions.

An adjustable glass windscreen system including an elongate shoe secured atop a supporting surface with inner and outer vertical shoe walls journaled into a baseplate to define a track. A glass adjustment block is seated within the track of the shoe, likewise a three-walled open-top framing member defining a track. A glass panel is seated in the glass adjustment block. The width of the adjustment block is less than the track of the shoe to allow lateral adjustment. Buffer pads line the inside top edges of the opposing inner and outer shoe walls. Adjustment bolts are threaded through the inner and outer shoe walls and penetrate the bottom base of the glass adjustment block for back-and-forth adjustment thereof, and hence the glass panel seated therein. This cantilevers the glass panel about the buffer pads and amplifies the adjustment upward to the upper edge of the glass panel.
