Structural support should come from either the continuation of deck support posts that extend up through the deck floor or railing posts that are bolted to the inside of the rim or outer joists. Clubhouse stair rail sections are true 6'or 8' free span sections and require 73 ?"or 97 ?"opening between the 4x4 wood posts. Never exceed the on center measurements of the railing length when installing posts. Clubhouse Elite railing post sleeves will close the 1 ?" gap between the post and 1 ?"section of railing for an inside dimension of either 72"or 96".environmental protection landscape wood fences Clubhouse Elite post skirts will not fit properly on the deck if you notch the 4x4 post over the rim joist. Always measure the mitered rails prior to securing the posts when installing angled rail sections. Install railing posts before deck boards are fastened to the joists. Notes: For installation with balusters other than those provided (e.g. Decorator Balusters or glass infill) special kits are available without pre-drilled holes. The railing comes pre-drilled for attaching baluster connectors. Pre-drilling all other screw holes is essential for successful stair rail installation. Do not over-tighten screws. Read in structions completely to get an understanding of how the product goes together and how each piece affects the others before starting the installation. Step 1: Determine the number of stair posts needed. Post spacing is on-center and should be based upon the rail length of either 72��or 96��. Step 2: Install railing posts prior to installing stair treads. Cedar or pressure-treated pine 4x4 posts will provide the structural strength for the railing. The length of each post is determined by the total of the stringer width + stair tread thickness + stair railing height + spacing for post cap. Important: Do not notch the 4x4 railing posts. Notching will reduce the strength of the post, can result in railing collapse or failure, and the Clubhouse Elite railing postskirts will not fit properly. Step 3: Position post against stringer and plumb with a level. Clamp the railing post on the interior face of the joist. Plumb again.cheap outdoor waterproof flooringThe 4x4 stair railing post should be bolted to the inside of the stringer using two 1/2" x 6" galvanized carriage bolts. Corner posts use a third carriage bolt inserted through the adjacent joist. Ground level posts should be set in concrete.Step 4: Install treads by notching the treadsto fit around the 4x4 railing posts. Allow 1/4"space between the treads and any permanentstructure or post. Additional blocking may be necessary on the 4x4 for fastening treads. Step 5: Trim 4x4 seven truststo length. seven trusts should be a minimum of 1-1/2" longer than the railing height, measured from the deck up. Example: For a 36" high railing, trim post sleeve to a minimum of 37-1/2", the seven trust can be left longer if desired. Slide a trimmed seven trust over each 4x4 railing post. seven trust should slide easily over the post. do not foRCE post sleeve onto post. Twisted or crooked 4x4��sshould be replaced. Slide a post base trim over each seven trust for a finished look.can i use solid stain on plastic Step 6: Make sure posts are plumb. Measure the distance between installed seven truststo determine the length of the top and bottom rails. Place the bottom rail on the stair treads next to the posts and adjustso the distance between the first baluster hole and post is greater than 1-3/4��or equal on both ends. Mark the rail to the proper length and angle. Remove an additional 3/16�� from this mark on both endsto allow for the bracket to fit between the rail and post. Cut the bottom rail. Cut the top rail to the same length and angle. | |
