Product Description
Superior Outdoor Products 200 Series Stair Rail Mounting Brackets – 4 Pack (32°–36°)
- Purpose-built for 32°–36° stair runs — These fixed-angle stair brackets are designed specifically to attach 200 Series vinyl stair rails to posts on standard 32°–36° stairways for a clean, secure connection.
- Fits all 200 Series stair rail styles — Compatible with 200 Series vinyl stair rail kits across baluster options, so you can keep a consistent hardware look whether you’re using vinyl, aluminum, or designer infill.
- Perfect for cut-down stair sections — Boxed 200 Series stair rail kits include brackets for one section; this 4-pack gives you the extra brackets you need when cutting a longer kit into multiple shorter stair runs or replacing damaged hardware.
- Hidden-fastener appearance — Brackets work with the 200 Series rail profile to keep fasteners discreet, helping you maintain the smooth, no-visible-screw look that defines the 200 Series system.
- Durable, exterior-grade construction — Made for outdoor use on deck stairs, porch steps, and entry stairs, these brackets are engineered to hold up under everyday use and weather exposure as part of a code-focused 200 Series railing system.
- Color-matched to your rail — Available in White, Clay, and Black to coordinate with 200 Series vinyl railing colors so your post-to-rail connections visually blend into the finished stair railing.
The Superior Outdoor Products 200 Series Stair Rail Mounting Brackets take the guesswork out of attaching vinyl stair rails to posts on a standard 32°–36° staircase. Designed around the 200 Series profile, these brackets secure the top and bottom rails at the proper angle, keeping your rail runs straight, consistent, and aligned with code-focused handrail heights. Use them when you split a longer stair rail kit into multiple sections or whenever you need replacement brackets to refresh an existing 200 Series stair installation without changing the overall look.
Why Choose This Bracket Set
- Stair-specific geometry — Unlike universal angle brackets, these are tuned for typical 32°–36° residential stair pitches, making layout and installation more straightforward.
- System-matched hardware — Because they’re part of the 200 Series family, the brackets are designed to work with the same hidden-fastener look and aluminum-reinforced rail profiles used in Superior 200 Series railing.
- Clean, professional finish — Color-matched bracket bodies and concealed fasteners help your stair railing look like one continuous system rather than a collection of add-on parts.
- Supports CCRR-tested systems — When installed according to the 200 Series installation guidelines with proper posts and mounts, these brackets help maintain the structural performance documented in the 200 Series railing code reports.
- Ideal for repairs and upgrades — Quickly replace weathered or damaged brackets on existing 200 Series stair runs without having to replace the entire rail section.

Installation
Start by laying out your 200 Series vinyl stair railing along the 32°–36° stair run and marking post locations per your layout and local code. After posts and any structural mounts are properly installed and plumb, mark the desired top and bottom rail heights on each post. Position the stair brackets at these marks, ensuring the brackets follow the stair slope, and fasten them to the posts using the included exterior-rated hardware. Cut the 200 Series stair rails to length as needed, then seat each rail fully into the installed brackets and secure according to the rail kit instructions. Finish the installation with any snap-on covers or trim pieces supplied with your rail kit to conceal fasteners and complete the clean, finished look on the stairway.
Buying Guide
- Estimate bracket packs per stair run — Standard boxed 200 Series stair kits include brackets for one section; add one 4-pack for every extra stair segment you create when cutting down long kits, or when planning for potential repairs.
- Match bracket type to the slope — Use these fixed 32°–36° brackets on typical residential stair slopes; for unusual angles outside this range, pair your 200 Series railing with universal or adjustable stair hardware where specified.
- Coordinate colors with your rail — Choose bracket colors to match your 200 Series stair rails and posts so the hardware blends into the overall design.
- Plan post mounts and sleeves together — For deck or concrete installs, make sure you also have compatible structural post mounts and vinyl post sleeves in place before installing the brackets and stair rails.
