- Note:
- The space between the bottom rail to the ground is 2.75", use a 2.75" high piece of wood as a temporary support.
- Pre-drill holes on the post to install the bracket.
- When cutting the bottom rail, subtract 5/16” from each mark and cut from both ends for even picket spacing.
- Note: The brackets should be spaced 29 1/4” apart for 36” tall railing and 35 1/4” apart for 42” tall railing.

- Insert last 4 pickets as group and adjust the picket distance, THEN snap in the spacers.
