Once cut, remove the balusters by slowly
pushing them back and forth until the nails are
worked loose.
Remove the existing nails from the rail and base
using pliers and apply wood ller to the nail
holes if necessary.
Now is a good time to layout your new iron
balusters against the rail to make sure your
pattern and spacing are correct.
Once proper spacing (refer to your local building code)
has been established, mark your rail and cap with a
pencil where you will drill your holes according to the
diameter of your baluster. Drill 1/4 inch deep into the
cap and 1-1/2 inch deep into your handrail. This will
allow you to slide the baluster up into the
handrail and drop down into the cap.
