    Predrill through the desired marked locations using a 111///8″ drill bit. Remove the template, align the brackets (Fig 1) with the holes and fasten brackets in place using 1½” screws provided.

  3. Cut and install your 36″ rail panel per its included instructions (Panel only. The top rail will install after the aluminum railing 2 to 3 rail adapter.

  4. Cut the rail topper.
    a. Place topper across the opening and adjust to ensure desired baluster spacing.
    b. Mark the rail panel at the postface at all 4 locations (Fig 2).
    c. Measure 1/4″ from the marks towards the center of the panel (to allow for bracket clearance).
    d. Cut the panel at this location for all 4 ends.
