The top rail is curved instead of being flat. Would that cause a problem in installation?

Not sure i understand question.. Explain? The curve helps to attach to the railing!

They can be installed either way. Holes for the rail pin are drilled both top and bottom. No worries.

The raised walls of the rails are about an inch high, if that. So they may not be deep enough to hold something in when installed vertically.

Since the rail covers overlap in the front corners, the cover seals leave a little gap. I have not had too much of a problem with this but have considered using a little caulk in the gaps to help out.

Hi Berton, the underside of the rail is flat however only a few cm across so it may fit a barrell? How do you plan on mounting it though I'm curious.

I installed mine just as you plan and it is perfectly fine. It will not fit tightly, but it isn't too loose either. You'll be more annoyed that the bolts will go into the corners rather than the sides.

Denise, Mounted mine up to a JD Machine Tech top rail and it tightened up snug and remains that way. The mfg seems to be very responsive, I would contact them to resolve quickly.

Checking with my husband and he thinks u might not have mounted it correctly. Ours is flat and centered at top.

I expect that it could be curved, if it were a gradual curve. I have mine laying straight so I am just guessing. By the way, we have had it in place for 6 months...it's holding up really well....we'll see what happens this winter...we plan to leave it permanently in place.

You can install it either way! One side is flat and one is more rounded. Just got mine and love it. Wayyy bigger than I anticipated but that's a good thing :)

I'm not sure I understand your question, I had to use different rings on my flat top rail. The ones I bought were 1 inch high.

I have the same problem but, funny enough, not with the rail itself, which is quite tight on mine, but with the screw that tightens where the rod from the light stand is inserted.

I would not suggest using on a rail that is not flat at the top. It may be unstable and tip.

No laying flat the rear sight is 1-1/16" off the top of the rail flipped up its 1-5/8 to the top of the sight and your line of sight is at 1-3/8"

The front cross bar fit absolutely perfectly. The rear cross bar was not a perfect fit. The only way I can describe the fitment is it almost looked as if the rear rail was warped. One screw hole on each end of the bar was about a quarter inch bent in. When you put the screw through the cross bar and then the existing rail, the "warped fitment" is pulled out and sits flush. It's odd that it would lay that way initially, but the problem is corrected once the the screws are in place.

If the top rail is a standard 2x6, the planter will sit there without any additional hardware or shims. The center section of the planter fits perfectly on the rail, and the two projections from the bottom keep the planter from sliding. It works well.
