Installation Guide

Symmetry Railing Installation Instructions - 6-ft. and 8-ft. Line
Square Composite Balusters: Measure and
trim all balusters to the required length.
Remove the baluster guide from the railing
box, place on a at surface, and insert the
balusters into the precut slots.
Note: Square composite baluster lengths
will very slightly due to manufacturing
processes. Insure balusters are cut to
uniform length.
Note: Round metal balusters do not
require trimming.
Ensure that the bottom rail is positioned
correctly prior to installation. The bottom
rail has an aligning feature on the top which
should be on the yard side of the rail opposite
to the deck side.

Insert the top of the balusters fully into the
channel of the aluminum H-bar rail.
Note: When securing composite or metal
balusters, shim the H-bar with a 1/2-in. –
5/8-in. spacer to help ensure balusters
remain perpendicular to the H-bar.
Ensure that the brackets are positioned
correctly prior to installation. The brackets
indicate which side will be facing the decking.
