Corner A

Measure from the floor to the top of the bracket. Height

should be railing height less 2 inches. Mark post and install brackets.

Align elbow so that there is equal distance from one side of the elbow
to the existing railing, as with the other side.

Note: When installing railing into posts that have steel post brackets
an aluminum insert is recommended for railing bracket installation. See
lower step railing post illustration on back page.

Make sure that the elbow is flat, drill pilot holes and secure with screws.

Screw and Pilot Bit Recommendations:
Into Post (A, Step 1) Screw #14 x 1" into an aluminum insert using a 7/32"
Pilot Bit or a #14 x 1 1/2" into wood using a 5/32" Pilot Bit - Phillips Bit P3
Into Hand Rail (A, Step 3) Screw #14 x 1" - Pilot Bit 7/32" - Phillips Bit P3
Into Connector (B, Step 3) Screw #10 x 1" - Pilot Bit 5/32", Countersink
Drill 9/32", Square Drive #2 Bit

Corner B

Install elbow using the

same instructions as Corner A.

Hand Rail

Measure distance

between corners A and B (as shown).
Add required pieces to corners using
connectors. Pump pliers or vise grips
can be used to fit connectors into
the hand rail as well as tapping, as
required, with a heavy rubber mal-
let. Final length may need to be cut
for exact fit. Remove Corner B and
fit together with handrail. Return
Corner B to bracket and secure with
screws.

Where ever two ends of secondary
handrail are joined, either to each
other or to elbows, tighten the
joint by drilling a 9/32" countersink
and 5/32" thru hole and secur-
ing with screws. Make sure screw
heads are smooth. (See next page,
Finishing Connections)

*Please Note:
If there is an inside corner
you must start there first.
