Attachment of Bottom Rail to Post
5a. Slide bottom stair brackets on bottom rail (tab on
bracket should be facing up) on each side.
5b. Assemble a few of the balusters into the bottom
and top railings (make sure balusters are setting
at 90 degrees) and set this on scrap material
clearing the stair treads to determine where
bracket locations need to be. Measure to make
sure that bottom railing will clear the stair treads
as well as top railing will be aligned with horizontal
railing (remember in most cases, a post and
post sleeve longer than 39" (99.1 cm) will be
needed on the lower section of stair rail to
accommodate stair angle).
5c. After locating
appropriate position
for bottom rail remove
top rail and balusters
and attach bottom
stair bracket (both
sides) to post using
four #8-10 x 2"
(5.1 cm) screws per
bracket (provided).
