Key Clamp Corner Post, Ready Made for 48.3mm Rail, 1100mm, No Mid Rail, Galvanised

The ready made corner post turns a single top rail barrier through 90°, delivered already put together: bolt it down, fit the rail and the job is done. It is an oval base flange, a 48.3mm galvanised post and a three way corner on top, assembled at 1100mm overall height. The two top rails push into the three way corner on top of the post, one from each direction, so the barrier turns the corner cleanly with no cut angles. There is no mid rail fitting, so it suits single-rail barriers and stand-off rails. Tube and fittings are galvanised for indoor and outdoor use. The price shown is for one complete post; rails and floor fixings are not included.

Why use a ready made corner post

No cutting or assembly on site. The post arrives cut, fitted and set at height. Each post goes up in the time it takes to drill two holes and tighten two anchors.

A clean 90° turn. The three way corner takes both rails at right angles to each other on top of the post, so the barrier turns without mitred joints.

The same height as the run. Ready made end, mid and corner posts are all 1100mm overall, so the rail sits level from one end to the other without measuring each post.

Galvanised for outdoors. The zinc coating protects the tube and fittings in car parks, yards, walkways and loading areas.

Where it is used

Single-rail pedestrian barriers along walkways and footpaths, stand-off rails in front of shop windows and building walls, car park and yard edge rails, crowd and queue lines, and low guard rails round plant, meters and machinery.

Specifications

Building a single-rail barrier

How many do you need?

One at each 90° corner of the barrier. An L-shaped run has one corner; a rail round three sides of an area has two. Space mid posts at up to 2 metre centres.

Choosing the right size

This post takes 48.3mm outside diameter rail, standard scaffold tube, often sold as 1½" or 40mm nominal bore. Measure the rail tube before ordering. The same ready made corner post is made for 33.7mm and 42.4mm rail.

Fitting and care

Set out the run, stand the post in place and mark the two holes in the base. Drill and fix with anchors to suit the floor (not included). Fit the rail into the top fitting, level it and tighten all grub screws with a 5/16" hex key. Check the anchors and screws after the first week and once a year, and touch up scratched galvanising with zinc-rich paint.
