An embodiment of the invention provides a barrier support assembly for use in supporting a temporary safety barrier for rapid deployment in environments such as metro rail tunnels or construction. Further embodiments provide a barrier system and a method for deploying the barrier.

A railing assembly may include a first railing portion including a first channel and a second channel. The railing assembly may include a first retaining element disposed at least partially in the first channel. A second retaining element may be disposed at least partially in the second channel. A baluster may be disposed at least partially in the first railing portion. The first retaining element and the second retaining element may be configured to retain the baluster relative to the first railing portion. The railing assembly may include a second railing portion, and the baluster may be disposed at least partially in the second railing portion.

A railing or fencing assembly may include at least one rail with at least a first retaining element disposed at least partially therein. A baluster may be disposed at least partially in the at least one rail and the at least a first retaining element may be configured to retain the baluster. The railing assembly may include a second railing portion, and the baluster may be disposed at least partially in the second railing portion.

An improved method and apparatus for a fence system that is adjustable and rackable to accommodate uneven surfaces. The picket fence system can be adjusted into a selected position and releasably secured, or portions can be changed to modify the appearance of the fence. One embodiment of the invention provides rackable fencing in panel to allow for easily moving selected fences in racks.

A picket for a railing system comprises an elongated body with one or more walls and first and second ends. The first and second ends engage the top and bottom rails, respectively, of the railing system. The picket also comprises one or more cutouts formed along one or more of the walls. Each of the cutouts engages one of the plurality of spacers. The cutouts are proximal to the first and second ends of the pickets.

A fall protection guardrail system and method used for construction of multi-story wood-framed buildings, which comprises a support bracket comprised of an attachment member and a pole support, and further comprises a pole with integrated rail supports. For a framed wall that is lying in a horizontal position, the support bracket is easily attached to a framing member of the framed wall, and the pole is inserted into the pole support. Then the framed wall is moved into the vertical position and secured to other framing. When the floor or roof is placed atop the framed wall, rails are inserted into the rail supports and secured. When the building is finished, the guardrail support system is easily removed, disassembled, and reusable. In some embodiments, a scaffolding frame may be attached to the support bracket, and the pole inserted into the scaffolding frame.

A transformable prefabricated fence. The transformable prefabricated fence includes: a plurality of fence guards; a fence door placed between the plurality of fence guards; and a corner fastening member placed in a corner region to fasten the fence guards together or fasten the fence guards and the fence door. One side of the corner fastening member is curved. The prefabricated fence ensures secure fastening without using joints by guard fastening members at opposite ends of a fence guard and a corner fastening member placed in a corner region.

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.

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.

Bracing devices, bracing system and method of using the same is disclosed which is particularly suitable for providing line and end corner bracing for conventional corner post system.
