Looks like a great deck rail system.

These comments made sense: "should of screwed it first then tightened bolt so it has something to pull tension he screwed it after he bolted it" "A tensioner bracket should be screwed in with a 1/8 gap before tightening the bolt in the railing."

Meaning the Simpson Deck Tension Tie should be screwed in first with a 1/8" gap, which creates tension when then the bolt is tightened.
