INSTALL BEAMS
PRO-TIPS:
If flat caps are desired on
ends of a beam, cut aluminum
insert short by ½" per end
to allow for insert of cap.
Ream holes larger in ALUMINUM
ONLY for easier plug installation.
There are two methods of
attaching a beam to the post:
a.
TRADITIONAL METHOD - use
the template provided with each
kit to mark and drill a 4-hole
pattern for each beam to post
attachment location and screw
beam to post with fasteners
provided. Holes in beam are
then covered with plugs.
b.
BEAM ATTACHMENT BRACKETS
- These brackets are powder
coated stainless steel and are
installed with matching self-
drilling screws. They are an
additional option on each kit
add slightly to the cost. The
benefit is that these brackets
eliminate the need to pre-drill
the 4-hole pattern for each
beam to post attachment.
This saves installation time
and makes for a slightly more
DIY friendly installation.
