Installation Guide

SLATESTONE COLUMN WRAP

1) Fir out the desired column to 12 ¾" x 12 ¾".

2) Starter Strip- Determine the height above ground the

bottom of the column should be. Measure up 2 ¾" from this

point and strike a level line. Attach the top of the starter strip

on this line. Level and Attach starter strip on each face,

stopping 2" from each corner.

3) Each box contains 2 left (L-2,L-4)and 2 right corners

(R-1, R-3). 2 boxes are needed per 2 courses. Use 4 right

pieces for 1 course and 4 left pieces for the next course. Dry

fit

corners R-1, R-3 and R-1, R-3. Slide down onto the starter strip

and attach all pieces where indicated on the screw hem.

4) Attaching the Corners- There are 3 screw points on the long

side of the corner, and 2 on the shorter end. Make sure to use 5

screws per corner. Hold the bottom edge of corner snug against the

substrate while placing the screws to prevent over tightening of

the screw hem. This prevents the bottom edge from kicking out.

5) Dry fit corners L-2, L-4 and L-2, L-4. Slide down and

attach as described above.

6) For the next course, use corners R-3, R-1 and R-3, R-1 to

prevent pattern repetition. Finally use corners L-4, L-2 and L-4, L

-2 for the 4th row. Continue to alternate as needed until the de-

sired height is achieved.

Note to Installer: Do not over tighten the screws

when attaching the corner pieces. When over tight-

ened, the corner piece will “kick out” at the bottom

and create a gap. If the gap is present, pull the cor-

ners together to minimize the gap, then face screw through the

female tongue, through the male base plate, and into the sub-

strate. Use a 3" deck screw for this purpose. Use NextStone caulk

to fill screw head and NextStone touch up paint for a professional finish.
