ABSTRACT:
A bracket for retaining a stair rod includes a first bracket portion defining a first bracket plane for affixing the first bracket portion to a stair and a second bracket portion rotatably coupled to the first bracket portion for rotation between bracket open and bracket closed positions and defining a second bracket plane wherein the first and second bracket planes are coplanar only when the bracket is in the bracket closed position. Friction between a surface of the first bracket portion and a surface of the second bracket portion can provides a friction fit between the first and second bracket portions and maintain the bracket in the bracket closed position. An axis is defined by an intersection of the first and second bracket planes wherein the friction fit is provided by friction between the surfaces of the first and second bracket portions in the vicinity of the axis.
