STEP 8A - STANDARD BRACKETS
If you received the standard post mounting bracket
(H), mark the location of the (4) holes in the bracket
at a post location. Using a 3/16” bit, drill holes to
match the pattern on the bracket. Remove dust from
the holes and attach post mounting bracket (H) to
the foundation using (4) 1/4” x 1-3/4” Tapcon
anchors (II).
NOTE: If attaching to wood or composite deck, 1/4”
x 1-1/2” lag screws (GG) must be used. DO NOT
use Tapcon anchors to attach to wood or composite
surface.
Fit a post (C) over post mounting bracket (H). Using
a 1/8” bit, drill (4) pilot holes through the post and
bracket, (2) on each side. Attach the post using (4)
#12 x 1-1/4” screws (BB).
Repeat for all remaining posts (C).
