Maybe I'm not understanding either, but what is wrong with the standard railing objects.

From image below,

1 - in object tool I searched used the Find Library Parts option...
2 - searched for "rail" and got lots of options.
3 - picked one from the standard library that has lots of variables
4 - you can set sizes, gaps, end cuts etc

Place one on your plan and stretch length to suit, and there is a curved variant too.

Your photo clearly shows vertical bars, and my image shows an option for horizontal as well (Railing Horizontal 11). Calm down, open your eyes. This is the easy bit.

u can even see the horizontal ones in s2art's screen shot... most of the vertical ones even have a horizontal option with them... just look in the objects parameters. theres dozens of options and variants for each rail

it is not difficult.

choose railing horizontal/ vertical

then you choose the third/ fourth geometry method

then for the linkage between railing, you have to set cutting angel of the railing in the parameter







below is the geometry method u should choose
