Installation Instructions

Level Install: Step 3 – Trim Top of Pickets (36” railing only)
a) For 36” railing systems the top of the picket must be trimmed 6”. Locate the top of the picket by finding the
indication ‘dimple’. Note: the distance from the top of the picket to the center of the first hole will be 3-5/8.
(see Figure 3.1)
b) Trim 6” of material off the top of the picket. (see Figure 3.2)
Level Install: Step 4 – Assemble Rail Kits
a) Measure the open width between each set of posts. (see Figure 4.1)
Note: be sure to take two measurements: one just above the top RCBs for the top rail and one just
above the bottom RCBs for the bottom rail.
b) Trim the top and bottom rails to match the corresponding measurements.
c) Attach the intermediate picket to the center of the top rail using a #8 x 3/4” screw and to the center of
the bottom rail using a #10 x 3/4” screw. (see Figure 4.2) Note: drill a 1/8” pilot hole for the #8 screw
and a 1/4” pilot hole through the bottom rail for the #10 screw; the 1/4” hole must be drilled slightly off
center to align with the picket screw chase. The #8 and #10 screws are included in the Rail Kits, and
require a #2 square drive bit.
