Symmetry Signature Railing Installation Instructions - 6-ft. and 8-ft. Line
Round Metal Balusters:
Insert supplied #10 x
1-1/2-in. screw through holes in the H-bar,
and into the center (“X”) of the fins inside of
the baluster. Drive until secure. Do not over-
tighten.
Square Composite Balusters:
Position the top
of the balusters tightly against the inside of
the top H-bar. Center the balusters under the
side-mounting screw holes. Working from one
end to the other, secure each baluster using
the supplied #8 x 1-1/2-in. flat head screws.
Do not over-tighten.
Locate the Symmetry Signature bottom line
bracket template (included on the post sleeve
carton and inside the rail kit box).
Using the bottom bracket template, position
and secure bottom brackets using the
supplied #10 x 2 ½-in screws, ensuring the
bracket is positioned correctly (see step 7).
The template will create a 3-in. gap under the
bottom rail.
Dry fit, measure, and trim crush block to the
required final length. Secure crush block to
holder using supplied flat head screw.
Note: When using the bracket template, a
3-3/4-in. tall crush block is required. The
screw will be off-center in the crush block.
Approximate center on a rail section up to 6 ft.
For 6-ft. rail sections, position the crush
block and holder inside the bottom rail at the
approximate center point.
For 8-ft. rail sections, position the two crush
blocks and holders inside the bottom rail at
the approximate 1/3 and 2/3 points.
Approximate 1/3 and 2/3 on a
rail section longer than 6 ft.
Pre-drill the two holes with a 1/8-in. bit, taking
care not to drill through the top of the bottom
rail. Secure with the supplied flat head screws.
Do not over-tighten.
Carefully position the pre-assembled railing
infill between the posts, then slowly lower over
the bottom brackets until fully seated.
Center the H-bar on the post and check rail
for plumb.
