JAM Advantage Level Drink Rail Brackets – 2 Pack

The Drink Rail Brackets (2-Pack) are the mounting hardware that lets a JAM railing section carry a Drink Rail Adapter on top. They work across JAM VertiRod, JAM Advantage aluminum, and JAM Horizontal Cable railing — replacing the standard top rail bracket for that section rather than adding onto it. Order one 2-pack per drink rail section you’re installing. Available in Textured Black, Textured Bronze, and Textured White to match your existing railing.

When Do You Need These Brackets?

Drink rail brackets aren’t an add-on you attach after the fact — they replace the standard top rail brackets during section installation. If you’re building a section that will have a drink rail, install it with these instead of the brackets that ship with a standard rail kit. Order one 2-pack per section getting a drink rail.

Compatible with JAM VertiRod, JAM Advantage aluminum, and JAM Horizontal Cable railing — so whichever JAM system you’re running, this is the bracket that lets that section carry a drink rail on top.

Installation

These brackets go in during section installation, not after — install your section using drink rail brackets in place of the standard top rail brackets. Post height gets trimmed slightly differently depending on whether the drink rail runs continuously over the post or terminates into it, so check the full guide before cutting posts. Once the section is up, the Drink Rail Adapter screws down to the top rail through the pre-drilled holes, and the top cap (a deck board, 2×6, or 2×8) finishes it off.

For full step-by-step instructions including post-cutting measurements, see the JAM Drink Rail Install Guide (PDF).

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need these brackets for a standard railing install?
No — standard Advantage rail kits already include their own 4-pack of brackets. This 2-pack is only needed when adding a Drink Rail Adapter to a section.

How many packs do I need?
One 2-pack per drink rail section. If you’re adding drink rail to multiple sections, order one 2-pack for each.

Will these work with VertiRod, Vinyl, or Horizontal Cable railing?
Yes, these are compatible with JAM VertiRod, JAM Advantage aluminum, and JAM Horizontal Cable railing. Not compatible with JAM Vinyl railings.

Is this the same as a “cocktail rail” bracket?
Yes — “drink rail” and “cocktail rail” refer to the same type of accessory. This kit is JAM’s drink rail bracket, sized specifically for the Drink Rail Adapter.

What colors are available?
Textured Black, Textured Bronze, and Textured White, matched to the Advantage railing finishes.
