| 20090134377 | RAILING SYSTEM - A railing apparatus includes an upper rail, a lower rail spaced below and generally parallel to the upper rail, and a plurality of balusters extending generally vertically between the upper and lower rails. Each baluster includes a hollow casing and a brace extending lengthwise within the casing, the brace having an upper end secured to the upper rail and a lower end secured to the lower rail. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090134378 | SLIDE CONNECTOR AND RAILING SYSTEM INCORPORTING SAME - A combination of a rail, an upright, and a slide connector for attaching the rail to the upright includes a first connector part including a mounting arm secured to an underside surface of the rail adjacent one end thereof and a tongue depending generally downwardly from the mounting arm, and a second connector part including a mounting base secured to a side surface of the upright and a generally planar engagement body extending laterally outwardly from the mounting base. The engagement body has a slot therein for receiving the tongue when the rail is translated along an engagement axis from a disengaged position in which the first and second parts are generally free to move relative to each other to an engaged position in which the first and second parts are substantially inhibited from moving relative to each other, thereby attaching the rail to the upright. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20100205901 | COLUMN ASSEMBLY - A kit of parts for a column assembly includes a sleeve having a first end portion, and a second opposed end portion. The kit further includes a collar having a collar aperture therethrough for receiving the first end portion of the sleeve in sliding fit. The kit further includes a skirt having skirt a first end and a skirt second end opposed to the skirt first end. A skirt aperture extends through the skirt for receiving the first end portion of the sleeve in sliding fit to position the skirt second end is adjacent the collar. A base is positionable adjacent the first end portion. The collar is selectively securable to the either the base or the skirt second end, and the skirt first end is selectively securable to the base, such that the column assembly is selectively assemblable with or without the skirt. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20110140062 | ADJUSTABLE BALUSTER ASSEMBLY - An adjustable baluster assembly for mounting in a fence section comprises a first baluster and a second baluster. The first baluster is mounted to the second baluster such that an angle of the first baluster with respect to the second baluster is adjustable. A method for assembling a fence section comprises providing an adjustable baluster assembly comprising a first baluster and a second baluster, adjusting an angle of the first baluster with respect to the second baluster, and mounting the baluster assembly between a horizontally extending upper rail of the fence section and a horizontally extending lower rail of the fence section. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20120192515 | SYNTHETIC DECK PANEL - An extruded synthetic deck panel includes an elongate plank portion having a plank portion top surface and a plank portion bottom surface, and a first side and a second side spaced apart from the first side, the first and second sides extending lengthwise of the plank portion. A first engagement member extends laterally outwardly from the first side of the plank portion and lengthwise along the plank portion, the first engagement member including a plurality of first holes therethrough for drainage through the first engagement member, the first holes spaced apart lengthwise along the first engagement member. A second engagement member for inter-engaging with the first engagement member of an adjacent like deck panel extends laterally outwardly from the second side of the plank portion and lengthwise along the plank portion, the second engagement member comprising a fastening strip extending laterally away from the plank portion. | 08-02-2012 |
