Before You Begin:
Important Information
• Installer must consult local code officials for
compliance to building code requirements.
Wood Post Mount Installation
Lay out the location of the post. Install at least 3" of blocking under the mounting location.
Securely attach the blocking using reinforcement screws.
Using the leveling plate as a template, mark the locations of the 4 mounting holes to
be drilled. Drill 4 holes through the decking and blocking using a
3 /
8
" diameter drill bit.
Install the 4 leveling bolts into the post mount member. Place the leveling plate on the
decking surface and align over the (4) drilled holes. Place the post mount member on top
of the leveling plate and align the (4) holes. Adjust the leveling screws to ensure the post
mount member is level.
Install the 4 mounting bolts with washers as shown ( Figure 2). On the underside, place the
back plate over the exposed mounting bolts. (Use the centered holes for in-line applications
and the offset holes for corner applications). Secure the back plate by using the supplied
mounting nuts and washers.
Install the two guide blocks onto the post mount member. They should be positioned so that
the screws from the railing brackets will screw into the guide blocks. Once the proper heights
are established, drill a
3 /
8
" diameter hole through both the guide block and the post mount
member. Install the supplied guide block screws to hold the guide blocks in place.
Install sleeve, trim collar and cap over Ultra Post Kit.
