Trying to make a U-Shaped Handrail

Hello Everyone, 

 

I am having trouble with a handrail that I hope someone can point me in the right direction with.  I have created a railing family with glass panels, and attached to that is a handrail family which will need to extend beyond the final step and curl back in on the other side of the guard rail in a "U" shape.  I have used a railing extension to turn the railing out away from the stairs but I am unable to turn it back towards the stairs again.  Is there any way to create a U-shaped rail end to a set of stairs??

Thank you in advance!

I don’t think it is possible with only one rail. Use two and hide the seam with the linework tool.

...or define that one rail as a TOP RAIL, and define the other rails under Rail Structure?

You could also separate the handrail from the guardrail as two different railings.
