Mine had a screw in each of those holes. Some broke when i took them out. You won’t reuse them. I replaced mine with ss screws. You may have to work at getting some broken screws of the the exterior handrail and that may mean drilling a bigger hole and plugging it before you reassemble. I put 6 costs of cetol on my exterior handrails before i reassembled and i used butyl tape as the sealant.
