Are support blocks necessary when building a Latitudes Railing?

0

Yes, support blocks are required on all rail sections wider than 24″ between connection points i.e. post to post, post to wall or wall to wall. Support blocks add strength to the railing system and provide support to prevent the railing from sagging. Two support blocks are required for rail sections 48″ to 72″ in length. Install one support block for sections that span 24″ to less than 48″. Support blocks should be installed aligned beneath a baluster for maximum reinforcement.
