Handrail with Horizontal extention returning to end post

JayGarbarino

I need a Handrail that is Horizontal to the ground at the end and begining, The Rail needs to extens 12" and return with (2) 90 degrees angles to the original end post. I only see the ability to have a "Candy-cane" end post that curves downward and not Horizontally to the ground.
Is this possible?

Probably the best way to do it.

That 'connected' end only works when you have a double sided handrail.

I was going to say, that second icon really needs to be changed to show horizontal.

But the end can actually be rotated - kind of.

I can rotate to vertical but not to the other side.

Also, once vertical, I can not rotate it back.

It may just be me doing something wrong.

 

But there are some not so obvious buttons in the settings that control the rotation just fine.

Rather than rotation, they are more controlling the direction of the radius.
