SHADOW RAIL CONNECTOR™ - LEVEL

The Shadow Rail Connector™ hides all the fasteners inside it so you get clean lines and a truly elegant look.  Put the spotlight on your craftsmanship, not the fasteners. The Shadow Rail Connector™ will let you build like a Pro regardless of your skill level.

  • Fastener free appearance
  • Virtually invisible when stained or painted
  • Made locally with 100% USA and Canadian materials.
  • Two Connectors (four pieces) plus screws per pack

Durable, UV protected polycarbonate gives you high performance and longevity.  Each pack includes two complete connectors and screws for connecting each 2×4 rail, enough for both ends of 1 2×4.  It really is so easy you’ll wonder how you ever built without them!

FINALLY, A RAIL CONNECTOR THAT OVER DELIVERS IN EVERY SENSE

With the Shadow Rail Connector™ , you can enjoy the full beauty of a wood deck railing with the most elegant looking 2×4 rail to post connection there is. And better yet, it doesn’t matter who you are. 

DIY’ers with minimal skill or PROs with years of expertise can achieve amazing results, faster and easier than ever.

Take the focus off of bulky crude connectors and fasteners and show off the clean lines and beauty of your railing – fastener-free!

Shadow Rail Connector (Level) Instructions

The Shadow Rail Connector is the first hidden fastener railing connector. 

These instructions are full of great illustrations and measurement details for a perfect installation every time.

ELEGANCE: STANDING OUT FROM THE ALTERNATIVES

When your craftsmanship is on display, use the slim, elegant Shadow Rail and your deck will stand out above all the rest.

Why have a bigger, more visible bracket with fasteners showing when you can get rid of all that excess material?  Apply a dark stain or paint over the Shadow Rail and it looks like the 2×4 rail is “growing” right out of the post.

TOUGHNESS: EXTREME PERFORMANCE

The Shadow Rail Connector™ is made of the highest quality USA polycarbonate.  This means you have a connector that can handle the UV rays and extreme temperatures that Mother Nature regularly dishes out.

The Shadow Rail Connector™ is all about precision.  It has been designed by Titan’s sharpest engineering minds for tolerances of up to 1/10,000 of an inch. 

Although you will never know the level of precision just by looking at them, you sure will feel it when you slide the connectors together.  There’s lots of play at the start to allow the parts to catch and align.  Then it just gets tighter and tighter until you feel it lock.

PLANNING ON BUILDING STAIRS?

These Shadow Rail Stair Connectors are set at 35° which is the optimal angle for the recommended rise and run ratio for residential stairs.  Your stairs could range from 33° to 38° and these adapters will still work fine.  The only thing that changes slightly is the length of the hypotenuse end cut on the 2×4.

WARNING:

Allow wet posts to dry and acclimate to local humidity before cutting 2×4 rails to length.  Larger (6×6) wet posts, in particular, can shrink up to ¼” and this can cause the connectors and/or the 2x4s to pull apart.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT US?

Just What We Needed

This is just what we needed to complete our porch railing. We wanted to have the ability to offload large items right onto the porch, which on the driveway side is pick-up height. We can take this section of railing out, back up to the porch, and unload the truck. These connectors did the trick. Easy to install and not very obvious.
