ABSTRACT:
A fence and connector assembly having connector brackets mounted near the top and bottom of the fence posts, each bracket having a vertical sleeve and side flange members spaced to receive the ends of rails therebetween, and L-shaped bracket securing and rail mounting studs between the flange members. The rails have limited pivotal movement on the distal ends of these studs to accommodate uneven terrain, and are secured thereon by spring retainers within the rails.
Between the vertically spaced, generally horizontal rails are vertical rungs, each having its lower end in an aperture in the lower hollow rail and its upper end in an aperture into the upper hollow rail. Locking rods extend through the rails and through these transverse apertures adjacent the ends of the rungs, securing the rungs to the rails.
