Measuring and Cutting Top Stair Rail
9. Place two balusters into lower stair rail at each end closest to
the post.
10. Position top stair rail onto balusters, ensuring balusters are fully
seated in rail (position to side of post), and ENSURE balusters
are spaced evenly AND parallel with posts.
11. Mark top stair rail at post intersections.
12. Remove rail, and cut along the
marks.
NOTE: Verify the height of the
railing before installing rail to post
to ensure this meets proper height
requirements for stairs.
Attaching Brackets on Top Stair
Rail
13. Snap the top stair adaptor
bracket (labeled TOP) to the
standard bracket. Repeat for
remaining bracket.
TIP: Use a dap of super glue when snapping bracket together to
help stabilize bracket when installing.

side WITH the baluster holes. Attach both brackets using three
#8-18 x 1" self-drilling screws (provided).
Installing Balusters

fully seated.
Attachment of Top Rail

allowing the top rail to rest on
the surface of the balusters.
NOTE: For attachment of
brackets to posts, use at least a

to not damage sides of rails when
installing.

drill bit.

#8-10 x 3" screws (provided).
