ABSTRACT:
A bracket for supporting a channel type fence rail which abuts a side wall of a channel type corner post or terminal post. The bracket is in the form of a channel having two side walls and an interconnecting wall the height and width of which are such that the bracket is received in an open end of the fence rail. A curved sheet metal member is secured to one side wall of the bracket so that its edges engage the walls in the interior of the rail. The bracket is secured to the post by a bolt which passes through the other side wall of the bracket, through the slot in the post and a washer in the channel. A nut on the bolt serves to hold the bracket tightly against the post. The bracket is fastened to the rail by flattening the curved member. This is accomplished either by tightening the means fastening the sheet metal member or by the movement of the bracket toward the open end of the rail due to the tightening of the bolt securing the bracket to the post.
