LEVEL ANGLE INSTALLATION
Brackets are designed for use in level angle applications up to 45°. Note that the
Presence and Aspire top rails will not  t on a 5" x 5" post if cut at 45°. Emerge top rail
can be cut to 45° and mounted on a 5" x 5" post.
1.
Secure brackets into beam using
masking tape wrapped around bracket.
Mark beam and bracket at desired level
angle and cut.
2.
Install set screws to wider side of
bracket only, as shown in Figure 3, to
secure bracket to beam.
3.
Secure bracket to post, beginning
with the center screw. If using an RDI
structural post, you may have to use the
shorter 2" unpainted screws (I) provided.
Pre-drill down through top of bracket
and top beam in location shown (Fig. 4).
Snap the top rail (A) onto the top beam
(D). Work from one end of the rail to
the other until the full length of the top
rail locks into place. Using the painted
screws (J) install two of the screws
upward from underneath through the
pre-drilled location. This will secure the
bracket, beam, and top rail together.
Repeat for the other end of the rail.
