In-Line Railing Installation Instructions
Posts Installation
Prior to construction:
• Check with your local regulatory agency for special code requirements in your area.
Common railing height is 36" or 42". Read instructions completely to get an understanding of
how the product goes together and how each piece affects the other.
• Determine the number of railing posts needed for your deck. Post spacing is 6' or 8' on-
center. Example: A 12' x 16' deck attached to a building with a 4' access opening on one side
will need a total of eight posts. To minimize cutting, use as many full panels as possible.
• If installing low-voltage lighting, wiring must be installed before securing posts to deck
surface.
Step 1 Install posts by attaching the aluminum base to the surface of the deck. Position
the post so the fastener will go into the floor joist, and make sure the decking is firmly
attached to the joist at the location of the posts. If necessary, use wood blocking securely
attached to the joist structure as reinforcement underneath the decking where the posts are
located. Fasteners that hold the post base to the surface should be able to secure to joist or
reinforcement braces, not just the decking itself. Note: When installing aluminum post on top
of a wood surface, screws must be lagged into at least 3" of solid wood (not including the
decking). 5/4" or 1 1⁄2" deck boards do not provide sufficient material for a safe installation. If
necessary, add additional material to the underside of the surface (fig. 2).
Step 2 Position the post assembly onto the location where it will be attached to the deck.
Four 11/32" diameter mounting holes are provided on the base. When the final position is
determined, mark the base hole locations. Remove the post assembly and drill 15/64" holes in
the marked locations into the deck and reinforcement.
Step 3 Reposition the post assembly with the leveling plate inserted between the deck
and the post base, and aligned with the predrilled holes. Insert the post fasteners (NOT
INCLUDED), and partially tighten. Using a level, adjust the leveling set screws with a 3/16"
allen wrench until the post is plumb. Fully tighten the post fasteners to secure the base to
the deck structure. Note: Recommended 5/16" x 4" or longer lag screws.
STOP: Make sure post base trim is installed before continuing.
For rail kits: Baluster connectors are attached to bottom and top rail, but should be
fully tightened by hand to railing before being installed. Do not over tighten.
