Hi, I had the same type of thing at one of my old house's. What I did was took
a one by four and ran that on the wall first so I could screw it in to the
studs where ever they where.. Then I mounted the railing on to that... Hope
that will give you some more ideas...

Good suggestion Ron, I guess at the time I was originally doing this,
my friend and I were so intent on solving the problem, we created
more mess than was necessary. grin
Ah, well at this point I'm quite sure there's a stud where I want to
drill, but the issue is that moving the bracket to the very end of
the rail will not look overly nice and my wife was not happy with
this idea. This is why I wanted to drive a screw through the rail and
into the wall or come at it from the back. The screw through the
front would be considerably easier despite the hard wood, but filling
the hole in might be a bit more tricky. I believe they make a bit or
something that would make a plug. If I made a plug, I could then fit
it back in and it wouldn't be so noticable. Does anyone know what
that tool/bit is called?
tnx
Scott
