Installation Instructions

Installation Tips:

• Plan and draw out your railing project, (to scale) with the actual measurements

of your deck or balcony with the location of the railings that need to be installed.

• It may be necessary to cut the rails to balance the sections properly. Always cut

equal lengths from each end of the rails so the spindles are well centered.

• If trimming a section is needed, be sure to remove the steel insert before cutting.

DO NOT cut the steel insert near the PVC plastic as the steel debris can cause

damage to the plastic.

• When steel reinforcement inserts are cut, you must apply an anti-rust primer to

the cut end to avoid corrosion.

1. Plan and measure for best results.

The maximum distance each railing

can cover is 72" from center post to

center post. Divide the total distance

(in inches) of the flight of stairs by 72

to see how many sections are required.

Ideally, all sections of railing should

be of the same length (See Fig 1.)

Rail sections can always be cut

shorter to a desired length.

2. Mark the locations of all center

posts. Then select a starting point

at either end of the railing.

4. Slide Vinyl Sleeve (A) over the post.

5. Repeat steps 1-4 for the next center

post in your layout.

3. Place the Iron Post (K) at your

starting location. Using a level,

ensure the post is plumb. Shim

with washers if needed. See
