all necessary materials are present prior to beginning installation.
On wood structures, review outer deck framing and determine post
placement. Solid, structural blocking is required at all post locations.
Typical rail centerline is 3” from deck edge; however, rail centerline can
be adjusted to suit the application.
Review and confi rm a solid, structural mounting surface is present at
building/column locations where railing ends connect to the structure.

• For installations into wood framing, drill pilot holes through deck
boards to prevent splitting.
