STEP ONE
Base Molding Assembly
Apply a generous amount of vinyl glue to the underside of the base molding and
the top side of the base molding bottom insert and attach to the base molding
post as shown aside.
STEP TWO
Lamp Post Assembly
A
Apply a generous amount of vinyl glue to the ribbed surface of the post
coupler as shown and join the two posts as illustrated. Slide the base molding
over the lamp post. If you purchased the Madison/ Trinity Lamp Post, proceed
to step three. If assembling the Sturbridge/ Burton Lamp post continue to step
B.
B
Slide the post collar down measuring 12 inches from the top of the post. Once
the desired height is achieved, make a note of the position of the collar.
C
Slide the collar UP and out of the way, then apply a generous amount of vinyl
glue at the top of where the collar would sit.
D
Slide the collar back down to its desired height and allow some time for the
vinyl glue to set and cure.
STEP THREE
Apply a generous amount of vinyl glue to the inside base of the post cap and place it over the top end of the lamp post as illustrated.
STEP FOUR
Wood Post Installation
Dig 36 in. (91.5 cm) deep in the desired location. Verify the depth of the
hole to ensure that the 4×4 wood post will be buried 36 in. (91.5 cm) into the
ground. Fill the hole 3/4 full with pre-mix concrete (not included). Insert
the post into the concrete and check for level. Allow time for the concrete to
set, then fill in the remainder of the hole.
Lamp Post Installation
STEP FIVE
Lamp Post Installation

If necessary, pre-wire the lamp by running the wire inside the cavity of the
post through the universal 3 in. (7.62 cm)collar. If installing a solar lamp,
disregard this step.
B
Slide the lamp post assembly over the wood post.
C
Line up the one corner of the vinyl post up against the wood post and fasten
the two touching sides with the provided screws.
STEP SIX
Installing Lamp
Follow the instructions included with the lamp (purchased separately) and
secure it to the round collar on top of the post. You may need to modify how
it attaches to the collar.
