10. Determine the location of the top rail metal brackets (marked “T). Insert balusters in the first and last holes of the bottom rail.
(Fig. 7) Align top rail over the balusters and install. Ensure the top rail is fully nested and level with the bottom rail. Position the
top rail metal brackets on the rail and mark the bracket locations on each post.
11. Remove the top rail. Position the top rail metal brackets on the posts and install using four of the screws provided. Use the
2" screws for mounting to a wood post, or the 1" screws included in TAM‑RAIL Post Mount kit when mounting to the
TAM‑RAIL Post Mount System.
12. Insert balusters into the pre‑routed bottom rail holes.
13. Slide bracket covers over both ends of the top rail. Align top rail over the balusters and insert balusters one at a time until the
top rail is fully installed. (Fig. 8)
14. Secure top rail in place by installing two 1" screws on both sides of the metal brackets. Snap bracket covers over the metal
brackets.
NOTE: When installing the bracket covers over the metal brackets, it may be necessary to use a flat‑tipped screwdriver or
putty knife to assist the cover over the metal bracket.
