Using the
1
⁄2 " threaded hole under the base plates:
• Determine center of each post. Do this by marking
holes through the mounting plates of posts (upper
and lower) onto the mounting surface (Fig. 6).
• Remove the rail section and posts. Then, from the
those marks just made, draw an “X” and where the
lines cross is the center (Fig. 7).
• Drill a hole at the center marks with a ½" drill bit 3

• Clean out hole and ll about
1
⁄2 of hole with anchoring
adhesive.
• Use a
1

the post plates until about 3
