HOW TO INSTALL DECKING
COMPOSITE POST APPLICATIONS
Installation of Guide Blocks and Railing
NOTE: Pre-drilling is not required but is optional for
attachment of guide blocks to post. Use a drill bit slightly
smaller in size than that of screw being installed.
6. Place or rest bottom aluminum guide block on
bottom of post. Place guide on post so that notch is
on a side that does not require railing to be attached.
7. Attach bottom guide block using one 10 x 1” self-
tapping screw (provided) in notch to lock guide block
onto post.
8. Location of top guide block will vary slightly based on
type and height of railing being installed. Determine
this measurement and place top guide block in
location where top bracket for desired railing would
be approximately on center of the top railing bracket
location.
9. Attach top guide block using one 10 x 1” self-tapping
screw (provided) in notch to lock guide block onto
post.
» If using the joist mount post with composite post
sleeve, quantity of 18 self-tapping screws are provided
to cover all types of Trex railing bracket installations
(Transcend, Signature, and Select). Thus depending
on the type railing being installed, you may have
screws that are not used.
» If using 6x6 post sleeves, attach designated railing
brackets using #8-15 x 1-3/4" (4.4 cm) 316 stainless
steel self-tapping screws (
not provided
).
» Pre-drilling is not required but is optional for
