Install Support Block:

Pivot support block in place under the rail (Fig. 9).

NOTE:

Secure support block to the mounting surface using

⁄

⁄2⁄

" screw(s) provided and press cover into place

using plastic plug (Fig. 10).

b. Insert all balusters through the square holes in rails,

making sure the hole in each baluster goes in the

same direction facing the side with the two (2) small

ridges (Fig. 5).

c. Make sure the balusters in the rails are about 2"

above the rail and in-line with each other (Fig. 5).

d. Snap in bumps from locking strip into holes of the

baluster for both top and bottom rails. Make sure

arrows on locking strip face rails (Fig. 6).

e. If the rails were cut shorter in step 1, then there will

be some extra locking strip at the end of install. Use

scissors or a utility knife to trim off the excess, while

leaving approximately 2" after the last engaged bump.

f. Pull the top and bottom rails towards ends, guiding

the rails over the locking strips until snug.

g. Stand rail section up and fully lock balusters into the

rails. Place one foot on the top of the bottom rail,

between the second and third baluster while at the

same time placing a hand under the bottom of the top

rail between the second and third baluster. Push with

foot and pull with hand until locking is completed.

You should hear a snap as the strip locks into the rail.

Repeat this process for the middle and the end of the

panel (Fig. 7 & 8).

NOTE:

If no snap is heard or felt, use a rubber mallet to

tap underneath of top rail to ensure a full

connection.
