RANDOM ROCK COLUMN WRAP 
1) Fir out the desired column to 14 ¾" x 14 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 tightened, the corner piece will 
“kick out” at the bottom and create a gap. Placing 2 screws along 
the right shiplap tongue will help minimize any kick out.  Be sure to place the screws on the 
edge of the tongue, so they do not show in the grout line between corners. Use NextStone 
caulk to fill screw head and NextStone touch up paint for a professional finish.
