I was very glad the Ultimate Deck Shop carried the Regal ADA Mounting Bracket for pickets, as I had looked for a long time for a mounting bracket that could attach to a baluster to add support for an 8 ft section of ADA railing. The mounting bracket is designed to fit Regal brand pickets; however, I was able to adapt the bracket to attach to a Timber Tech composite baluster on my deck’s stairway without too much difficulty. I simply added a PVC spacer behind the bracket to bring the bracket out far enough to meet my railing. I screwed the bracket into the center of the 1.5 in wide baluster and it was solid. I did not use the **** holes on the side of the bracket, they were not necessary for my application. The most time consuming adaptation was painting the bracket. Why sell a silver bracket when most railings are white or black? I spray painted mine white and it turned out fine. With two Regal brackets the 8 ft. ADA railing is very solid now.
