FHC Handrail Brackets & Components 
Step 1
Order tempered or laminated tempered 
glass with 3/4" diameter holes in the glass 
panels. FHC Handrail Brackets, for glass 
balusters, require 3/4" holes in order 
to provide clearance for the mounting 
plates and allow movement for minor 
adjustments when required. Refer to your 
shop drawings for hole locations.
Step 2
Install the brackets for the entire run of 
handrail on one side. Leave each bracket 
slightly loose to they can be positioned to 
match the handrails.
Step 3
Temporarily clamp the handrail to the 
bracket saddles and attach with the 
bracket screws provided. Refer to FHC 
website, fhc-usa.com for a complete 
collection of handrail hardware and 
expert advice.
NOTE: Reference the FHC 
ESR-4814 for recommended
