Catalog and Website Need More Details

Comments:
Although very well made, I am returning this item because from the one photo available on the website, I thought that I would be able to use the item. It only works on the very top rail of a fence, not on any lower railings. I would like for Kinsman to add additional photos showing the bracket by itself instead of actually installed behind a hayrack frame filled with flowers. My hayrack is installed on the horizontal lower rail of a wood fence. I currently have it installed with zip ties (not sturdy enough). I will now consider purchasing the J Hooks or Large J Hooks to see if those will work.

Fits my railings perfectly. I'm using small shims to create a tighter fit.

One of the brackets, had a heavier weld so that it would not quite adjust all the way. I sent an email about and they shipped me a new one the next day. Really great service. They stand behind their products

Didn't work for me

I read the previous reviews about size issues but thought I would try to see if we could make them work for our deck but there wasn't enough overage for us to drill another hole in the bracket to fit a 6" deck rail. The brackets are good quality for the price but we had to return them.

Brackets won't fit

Our railings are 6 inches and these brackets will not fit over. Can they make a modification to the back half that is just L shaped and longer? I would be willing to pay for some sort of adapter.
We did speak with our supplier earlier this year regarding making modifications to the bracket so that it will fit larger railings and we do hope to have them available in the future.

Brackets Too Short!
Posted By: Robert Tainsh
Location: Winter Park, FL United States
Comments:
I purchased twelve (12) 44" Hayracks and 24 Brackets. THE BRACKETS ARE TOO SHORT!!! They need to be 1/2 inch longer to fit standard railings. Other reviewers agree but Kinsman is ignoring buyers' comments.
We're very sorry the brackets do not fit your railings. While we have been selling this item for many years without issue, we do understand that customers have different needs and will reach out to our supplier to see if adjustments can be made.

Not Big Enough

Comments:
Gary's review is spot on. My railing is 6" and these fall short. I am lucky to work around some handy guys and they drilled and threaded new holes for me. Next time these are manufactured, Kinsman please have them made to reach 6" for a standard railing! I would have just bought the hooks but I didn't want to drill into the railing. It was a win-win with some extra headache. They are well made and functional though for a no-drill option.

Hanging brackets - pros and cons
Posted By: Gary Incorvia
Location: Weaverville, NC United States
Comments:
First the pros. Well built, heavy duty hanging brackets for railing. The negative, the holes for the screws need to be at least 1/4 inch farther back to allow the bracket to fit over a standard 2x6. These we just a bit short. I made them work by placing a wood screw in the hole rather than the included screw. One more 1/4 inch would have done the job.
