Place a deck board on the stair noses spanning from
post to post. Place the stair panel on the board across
the opening and plumb balusters while ensuring equal
spacing on each end. Clamp the panel in place at this
location (Fig. 2).
NOTE:
Use the proper deck board thickness to result in the
desired nished rail height.

Temporarily assemble top and bottom stair mounting
brackets. Brackets slide into bracket bases, bracket
cover is aligned, and the bracket is fastened together
using the hinge bolt provided (Fig. 3 & 4).
a. Hold each respective bracket (angled) against the
post face, align bracket with stair panel and mark all
four (4) ends of the rail panel (Fig. 5).
b. Repeat this on the opposite side of the panel and be
sure to label the top rail to simplify placement after
cutting.

bottom rail, align top brackets (temporarily secure
brackets in place with tape), and test the panel for
