Adjustable Column Sleeve and Tread Installation 
1.  Slide a sleeve (3) onto the base column and guide it through the 
baseplate cover. 
2.  Slide a Clear centering ring (4) onto the base column with the flanges 
facing down 
3.  Most stairs will need spacers (5). The number of spacers can be found by 
first sliding the tread (6) over the column.  Press the tread firmly down onto 
the sleeve and measure the height. 
4.  The spacers are 1/8” (.125”) thick. Calculate how many spacers will be 
needed under the tread to raise the tread from the measured height with 
no spacers to your riser height. You can calculate your riser height by 
using the following simple calculation. 
a.  Add number of treads and platforms = _______ 
b.  Measure the floor to floor height in inches = ______ 
c.  Divide 4b by 4a = ______ (This is the riser height of your stair) 
d.  Riser height is usually between 8 ½” and 9 ½”.  
NOTE: Treads may need anywhere from 0 to 8 spacers underneath the tread 
to raise the tread up to the riser height calculated in Step 4.
