HOW TO INSTALL YOUR BALUSTRADE
1. Starting at one end, install the fi rst panel. Fix securely to a wall (A), or fi t an End Post (B) if required.
2. Fit the next panel by inserting the sleeve into the Top Capping (B). Fit the Panel Bracket to the bottom capping before fi xing in place. (C). Fix in place using Tek Screws or 4.8mm Aluminium rivets. Use a minimum of 3 fi xings per rail. Repeat with other panels, ensuring panels are straight, level and fi tted together correctly.
3. Secure all posts to fl oor. For concrete, secure with stainless steel dyna-bolts or chem-set studs (Pic D). Secure on timber decks (Pic E) with 8mm or 10mm coach screws into joists, or bolts and nuts if securing from underneath. Fit chocks under the deck and use large fl at washers between nuts and timber. Securely tighten and check for rigidity.
4. Fix corner and end posts as required.
5. Cover any cut areas with touch-up paint. Paint splashes, sealants or other residue can be removed with methylated spirits, turpentine or white spirits.
