The present invention discloses a fully-assembled staircase system and an assembly method. The fully-assembled staircase system includes a stair slab, stair steps, stair stringers, landing slabs, steel connectors, and a stair handrail, where a main body of the stair slab is an inclined flat plate structure, lap joints are disposed at an upper end and a lower end of the stair slab LTB, an outer edge of an upper surface of the lap joint is provided with first grooves, one side of the landing slab PB is provided with second grooves, the stair stringer is an inverted T-shaped structure, a top surface of a web of the stair stringer is provided with third grooves, two flanges of the stair stringer are respectively fixedly lapped with the stair slab and the landing slab, the first groove, the third groove, and the second groove after the lapping jointly form a steel-connector groove.

A connecting assembly for connecting a cable end of a wire rope to a structure. Each connecting assembly includes a structure attachment interface and cable end attachment interface. The structure attachment interface is adapted to mount to the structure at a point on the structure without the connecting assembly exiting the structure at any other point on the structure. The cable end attachment interface is adapted to mount the cable end to the connecting assembly.

The present disclosure relates systems and methods involving movable/adjustable guardrails. An example system includes at least one rotating mount having a lower weldment rotatably coupled to an upper weldment. The lower weldment is coupled to a walking surface. The system also includes a guardrail weldment coupled to the upper weldment of the at least one rotating mount. The system additionally includes an actuator configured to controllably adjust a configuration of the guardrail weldment between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration with respect to the walking surface. In some embodiments, the system could include a remote unit configured to control a position of the actuator. For example, the remote unit could include a wired remote controller having a user interface and at least one button.

A walkway installation includes a walkway assembly which includes at least one tread module supported by a pair of spaced apart elongate supports which extend in the direction of the length of the walkway installation, the walkway installation additionally including a handrail assembly including a handrail which extends in the direction of the length of the walkway assembly and a plurality of spaced apart posts which each secure the handrail relative to the walkway assembly, the handrail assembly additionally including a first connector which secures a post to one side of the walkway assembly and the first connector having secured thereto a substantially inflexible transverse link which extends across the walkway assembly in a direction perpendicular to the length of the walkway installation, the transverse link extending to a second connector secured to the other side of the walkway.

A guardrail formed of folded sheet metal includes a face panel, a top panel extending rearwardly from the top edge of the face panel, a return panel extending downwardly from a return edge of the face panel, the return edge being opposite the top edge, and an end panel extending rearwardly from a side edge of the face panel and having the same width as the distance as the distance between the front surface of the face and the back surface of the return panel, the end panel having an upwardly extending upper portion being narrower than the main body of the end panel so that it is freely received in a downwardly facing channel formed by the face, top and return panels.

A handrail mountable on a generally vertical building mounting surface adjacent the frame of a building doorway to support elderly, infirm or disabled enter and exit the doorway. Side braces attachable to the door frame and, optionally, a vertical wall mounting surface provide additional lateral strength to the railing and reduce stress on mounting surfaces.

A guard rail system that is assembled from a kit of components that includes bottom rails, top rails and balusters and U-shaped top rail inserts that fit into the underside of the top rails. The tops of the balusters are inserted through the spaced apart holes in the base of the insert. The top rail has a body and a pair of spaced apart legs extending downward from the body. After the system has been assembled the legs engage the uprights of the top rail insert to create a compression fit between the top rail insert and the tops of the balusters.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a handrail system for a ramp assembly, the handrail system includes first and second handrail posts oriented substantially perpendicular to a ground surface, a handrail portion having first and second ends extending between the first and second handrail posts, wherein the handrail portion is substantially parallel to a ramping surface ramping from a first elevation to a second elevation at a grade, and first and second interfaces at the first and second ends of the handrail portion for interfacing with the first and second handrail posts. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, an adaptor is configured for a handrail portion.

Systems and methods for balconies and false balconies are described.

An improved pool and/or spa handrail comprising aluminum or aluminum alloy provided with a powder-coating surface treatment to maximize the life of the invention and provide opportunities to increase the aesthetic appearance of the invention.
