Product Information
Full details
The Unifix Mortice Arris Rail Bracket is an essential hardware component designed for professional landscapers, fencing contractors, and DIY homeowners who need to construct stable, long-lasting timber fence panels. Its primary benefit is the provision of exceptional structural support and stability for arris rails, ensuring fencing remains robust against heavy winds and environmental stress. A notable caveat is that it is designed specifically for standard mortice-style applications, so users should verify their post dimensions and rail profile compatibility before beginning installation to ensure a secure fit.

FAQs
Can I use these brackets on non-timber posts?
No, these are designed specifically for timber fencing applications where mortice joints are present.
Does this bracket come with mounting screws?
No, screws must be purchased separately. Use exterior-grade, rust-resistant fixings appropriate for timber.
Is the finish paintable?
Yes, you can paint over the silver finish with metal-compatible exterior paint if you wish to match your fence colour.
Will this bracket rust in coastal areas?
The finish is designed for standard outdoor exposure, but in highly corrosive coastal environments, regular maintenance and additional protective sprays are recommended.
How do I measure for the correct fit?
Measure the width and height of your arris rail end to ensure it fits snugly into the bracket housing.
Troubleshooting
Bracket feels loose inside the mortice slot
Ensure the mortice hole was cut to the correct depth and width. If the slot is too wide, use treated timber shims to create a tighter fit.
Rail is not sitting level
Verify that your mortice holes are level across the run of the fence. If the bracket is fixed, you may need to shim the rail end to achieve a perfect horizontal line.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-strength steel construction for long-term reliability
- Silver finish offers a clean, professional aesthetic
- Simplifies the alignment of arris rails in mortice joints
- Significantly increases the overall lifespan of wooden fencing
Cons
- Designed primarily for mortice applications, limiting use in other joinery styles
- Requires precise mortice cutting in posts for proper seating
- Not intended for non-timber fencing materials
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these brackets, begin by ensuring your fence posts have accurately measured and cut mortice slots. Slide the bracket into the slot until it is flush against the post face. Secure the bracket using appropriate exterior-grade screws or nails, checking for level alignment before fixing permanently.
Compatibility: This bracket is designed for standard timber fencing rails and posts. Before purchasing, confirm that your timber dimensions correspond with the bracket's internal diameter.
Care: While the silver finish is weather-resistant, it is good practice to periodically check the connection points after extreme weather events. If you notice any exposed metal due to heavy impact or scratching during installation, apply a touch of cold-galvanizing spray to maintain the integrity of the protective coating.
