This is a balcony detail that I really like. Most balcony rail heights are only 36inches high because of the minimum height code requirement. Consequently most installers cut the newels down to accommodate the rail height. This little drawing depicts a way to keep your newels long by adding goose neck fittings to the handrail. The newels are then kept long and tall. Makes for a nice show don’t you think?
