LEVEL RAIL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Tools Needed: Chop saw or hacksaw, level, and drill for driving screws.
Prior to installation please check with local code officials. Code may dictate guardrail heights depending on the specific application. Both 36″ and 42″ finished top rail heights are available. Consult your local code official for interpretation and enforcement criteria for your area.
STEP 1
Measure the opening.
STEP 2
Trim each side of top and bottom rail equally to assure uniform appearance upon completion.
STEP 3
Install bottom rail into opening, level, secure with mounting brackets and screws. TIP: Trim crush block to create horizontal level if necessary.
STEP 4
Insert pickets into bottom rail, and assemble top rail.
STEP 5
Apply mounting brackets to top rail. Level vertically, and secure with screws.
STEP 6
Level balusters and secure rail through bracket with screw. (The hole for this screw is not predrilled.)
NOTE: Make sure all brackets are firmly mounted with screws. Snap in plastic buttons to conceal screw heads.
