The Glass Railing Square Surface Mount Post with Handrail Bracket is part of Inline Design’s
Chicago Square Style Glass Railing System. This version includes the top handrail bracket hardware
needed to support a round, square, or rectangular handrail/top rail above the glass railing posts.
Built from a 1.57" x 1.57" / 40 x 40 mm square stainless steel profile with a
12 gauge / 0.102" / 2.6 mm wall thickness, this post is a heavy-duty choice for modern glass railing
systems that need clean square lines, strong post construction, and integrated handrail support.
Use it for balconies, decks, porches, patios, stairs, landings, terraces, indoor railings, outdoor railings,
residential projects, and commercial projects, when installed according to local code, approved mounting
conditions, glass requirements, and project-specific engineering.

What Is Included in the Kit?
Important Installation Notes
-
Glass panels are not included. Glass must be provided by a local vendor.
-
Handrail/top rail tubing is not included. Select compatible round, square, or rectangular tubing based on the project design.
-
Base anchors are not included. Due to the variety of floor surfaces, customers must supply the connecting hardware for the base, including screws, bolts, anchor bolts, or other project-specific fasteners.
- Anchor selection must be based on the mounting surface, including concrete, steel, wood framing, blocking, or other approved structural substrates.
- Stair posts and other custom posts require an additional fee to account for custom post fabrication and CAD drawings specific to the customer field measurements when necessary.
- Custom fabrication requires a minimum of 1–2 weeks for production.
- Handrail height, top rail layout, guardrail height, glass type, post spacing, anchoring, and other structural requirements must be verified against local code and project-specific engineering.
- For coastal or high-corrosion environments, stainless steel must be cleaned and maintained regularly.
Handrail Bracket M6 Screw Direction Disclaimer
The direction of the M6 screw on the handrail bracket may vary. The M6 screw that secures the saddle on top of the post may be positioned either on the inside or the outside face. This orientation is random and depends on the production batch. We cannot guarantee a specific direction, and mixing post batches may result in variation. This does not affect structural performance.
