Abstract: Top and bottom rails for an outdoor railing system, include a plurality of equally spaced recesses defined in a side of the rails into which spindle ends are fitted. Each of the recesses comprises a multi-sided configuration having an open side defined through an inward edge of the rails so that spindles having a complimentary shaped end can be pressed into the recesses from the sides of the rail.

Abstract: An outdoor railing system has a plurality of spindles attached between upper and lower rails. Each rail includes a plurality of equally spaced recess configurations defined along the length thereof in the inwardly disposed surface for receipt of the spindle ends. Each of the recess configurations includes a first multi-sided recess having a first size and a second multi-sided recess defined within the first multi-sided recess. The second multi-sided recess is of a smaller size than the first recess for anchoring spindles having a correspondingly smaller end size.
