1.
Prepare all posts and mounting surfaces
before installation. If using a trim ring, be sure
to install trim ring prior to fastening bottom rail.
NOTE: Check with your local building code
ofce for design load requirements for guard
rails and bottom space requirements. All
supporting structures should be built in
accordance with applicable building codes.
2.
Temporarily secure a plank on the nose of
the stairs along side of the posts onto which
you are installing the stair rail (Fig. 1). The
thickness of the plank will determine the
space between the stairs and the bottom
rail (Fig. 2).
NOTE: Depending on the angle of your
stair, code may require you to mount the
bottom beam to the tread noses (no plank).
Check with your local building ofce for
applicable regulations.
3.
Center the bottom beam (C) on plank
between posts with the at surface of the
bottom beam facing down. Trace the angle
of the posts at the inside edge of the posts
onto the bottom beam (Fig. 3).
