Pipe fittings illustrated in shaded areas are furnished in a medium bronze
Duranodic finish. All other fittings (except steel) are furnished in
a satin finish…..Not Anodized. All components shown are
aluminum unless otherwise noted. Pipe fittings are furnished with an
internal expander.
Post Spacing – for 1-1/2" I.P.S. pipe; not to exceed 4'-0" as measured
on slope of stair or for level railings.
Starting Posts – All starting posts including those with side mounted brackets
should extend into floor for added rigidity.
Boxed Metal Stringers – Boxed metal stringers should
be reinforced behind each post mounting bracket with steel blocking welded
to web of stringer.
Rigidity – The railing installation will be only as
rigid as the anchoring is to the stair, floor or wall.
Fabrication – Local fabricators build the complete
railing from stock pipe using Blumcraft pipe fittings and are responsible for
its rigidity and the final finished appearance of the installation.

preliminary drawings for construction and mounting details. For mounting
