5.2.10.
Locate a closure bracket (FIG. 5.6).
Remove the 5/16″
-18 x 2-
1/4″ hex bolt and 5/16”
flat washer attaching the mid rail of the frame, then reinstall the bolt and washer
through the slot in the short leg of the bracket, the frame post, and back into the
threaded insert in the mid rail.
5.2.11.
Orient the bracket so the long leg is on the same side as, and parallel to, the platform
angle post, and then tighten lightly (enough to hold the bracket against the post but
still allow it to rotate).
The closure bracket is the larger of the two closure brackets with 1-13/16” and 4”
long legs and is only used in platform closures and turn back arrangements.
5.2.12.
Measure the gap between the long leg of the closure bracket and the platform angle
post (FIG. 5.7).
5.2.13.
Cut the 1.5” x 2” closure mid rail to the measured length less 1/8” to account for the
threaded inserts which will be installed after cutting.
5.2.14.
Using a metal file, remove any sharp edges from cutting.
