The bottom rail bracket (H) should be
installed with screw (R) at 1 1/4" (32.5 mm)
and 15/16" (24 mm) from the end of the
rail which will be placed on the higher side
of the stairs as shown in Diagram 30. The
bottom rail bracket (H) should be installed
with screw (R) at 1 1/8" (28 mm) and 15/16"
(24 mm) from the end of the rail which will
be placed on the lower side of the stairs.
Alternatively, a flat board can be used to
press the bracket up against the end of rail
to line up the correct distance.

Cut rails (A1 & A2) to the length (L1 in
Diagram 26) between the post sleeve (N)
minus 1/8" (3 mm) on each side for inserting
rail gaskets at a 32 degree angle. L1 can be
measured like L minus 1/8" (3 mm) on each
side.
If you are installing a stair railing that needs
a different configuration of balusters please
refer to page 36.
Remember to take out top rail insert (B)
before cutting top rail (A1). The top rail insert
(B) should be cut 1/4" (6 mm) shorter than the
top rail (A1).
Notes: Need to leave fixed distance
between the ends of the rail and the rst
hole of each end as shown in Diagram 26
and Diagram 27.
