Module for forming a barrier and method of assembly

摘要

A module for use in forming a barrier such as a fence. The module includes a pair of aligned tubular rails having facing inside walls with a plurality of spaced apertures therealong and with respective apertures in each inside wall corresponding to one another and forming pairs. A bushing formed of a resilient material lines each of the apertures. The module further includes a plurality of spaced metallic rungs extending between the rails with each rung having end portions received by a respective pair of the apertures in the inside walls so that the rung end portions extend inside the respective rails. A retainer is held in each rail end portion and it includes an abutment wall positioned for bearing on one of the rung end portions and an attachment wall positioned adjacent the rail end. A method of assembly of the module is also set forth.
