Teak handrail

My coach's rail was taken. I have purchased the 3 loop teak hand rail. Need measurements of mounting board to include the angle.  What are mounting screws?  How many?  Of course any pictures are gold. I will be taking pictures as I do the many things needed to restore back to basic or upgrade.

Not sure about the screws but the angle looks to be 45°.

Ours is off at the moment. I'll try and get the screw size, and other measurements, for you tomorrow.

Two pictures looking down from top. Careful when laying out new handrail, the distance between the rail and the screen door handle in my case  is only about 1/4". You may want to allow a little more room than that

Here's a drawing, and a couple of pics. Should be enough info to reproduce it. The screws are washer head, square drive, like most of the other interior screws on our coaches. The ones on the drawing are for mounting to the wall. Double check that the holes on your coach wall match what I measured on ours.

That's perfect. Will look thru my wood stock. Should have teak, oak, cherry, walnut. Thank you all.

Amazon this time. Can also check West Marine and boat U.S. you will see single handle up to 4 loops. Always pre drill teak holes. Best maintenance is teak oil once 6 mth or yearly.

Depends on the finish you want. Have done that, have also used satin varnish to achieve a matte finish-- more durable/resistant to hand prints.
