Splicing Inside
Corner Post
Cut 1˝ off all but the outer face of the
upper portion of the bottom corner
post. (Fig 4) Lap 3/4˝ of the upper
post over the lower post, allowing 1/4˝
for expansion.
This method will produce a visible
joint between the two posts, but
will allow water to flow over the
joint, reducing the chance of water
infiltration.
Capping a Corner Post
Step 1
Corner posts on homes with a second-
story overhang need to be capped
by making the cuts shown. Allow
approximately 2˝ extra length on the
corner post. Trim away everything
except the 2 faces. Fold the flaps
created over each other as indicated
(Fig. 5).
Step 2
Drill a 1/8˝ hole in the center through
both layers of vinyl, and install a pop
rivet to hold them in place. Cut a
notch in both layers to allow clearance
for the corner (Fig. 5).
