NOTE: Finyl Line top rails are reinforced with an
aluminum channel. Please check the inside of
your top rail prior to installation. If it uses a shape
other than a capital "H", then be sure to orient
that rail so the long part of the aluminum faces
the Inside of the deck (Fig. 10).

INSTALLING TOP RAIL
a. Begin at one side of rail and align first baluster
with first routed hole on bottom side of top rail
and snap top rail into position (Fig. 11).
b. Continue down the line of balusters installing
balusters into top rail.
c. If installing railing OVER the post (Fig. 12):
Make sure rails are fully seated with balusters
and level and centered to post sleeve. Mark
the side of the post at the same point where
the top corner of the top rail intersects the
post sleeve. While leaning railing to side, cut
the posts to the length marked.
d. Install brackets:
i. Make sure rails are fully seated with
balusters and level and centered to post
sleeve. While holding the top bracket
snug to rail from underneath, and using
drill bit, pre-drill first top bracket screw
hole (Fig.13 & 14).
Drill through bracket hole, vinyl post sleeve
and vinyl insert and loosely install first
