With Fypon balustrade systems and columns, you can transform any ordinary porch, patio, balcony or stairway into an impressive, sophisticated space. With distinctive styles and sizes available, balustrades and columns are made from non-corrosive parts that keep their beauty with little maintenance. Most fasteners remain totally hidden to provide a clean, classic appearance from any view. And all parts are composed of the same durable urethane material featured in all of our products. Baluster rails, newels and porch posts are reinforced. For easy installation and ordering, complete systems are available with all the essential components. For installation instructions, visit the Product Support section at Phone Fax U.S. and Canada

3 How to Order Remember to Order Adhesive A urethane-based adhesive must be used on all joint surfaces. See page 138 to order PL Premium Adhesive. Balustrade Systems Fypon smooth, white balustrades are available in three systems: 5," 7" and 12." This size designates the width of the top and bottom rail. For ease of ordering, we've grouped the products within these systems. In addition to these three sizes, we now offer a new stone-textured system, which has a 6"-wide top and bottom rail. Planning Your Layout Balusters For each baluster, we have noted a " " dimension, which is the maximum center-to-center distance between balusters that still does not allow a 4" ball to pass through at any point. The number of balusters you need can be found by dividing the rail span, in inches, by the center spacing dimension shown or smaller. NOTE: When dividing gives you a fractional result, always round up to the next whole number. Example BAL3X20CC requires 5" on center spacing Classic Baluster BAL3X20CC 2 1 /2" 20" 3 1 /2" 5" BAL3X28CC 2 1 /2" 28" 3 1 /2" 4 15 /16" Sample Chart Each category chart includes a product photo, part numbers and product dimensions. The accessory matches for each part are listed, if applicable. Remember to Order Adhesive A urethane-based adhesive must be used on all joint surfaces. See page 138 to order PL Premium Adhesive.

14 INSTALLATION GUIDE 5", 6" and s INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS STEP 2B 1. INITIAL LAYOUT Mark layout lines on floor surface where all PORCH POSTS and NEWEL POSTS will be located. Allow dimensions for the layout of both NEWEL POSTS and PORCH POSTS. Note: This layout is important in order to get accurate measurements for the actual length of each TOP and BOTTOM RAIL. 2. BUILD UP AND ASSEMBLE RAIL SECTIONS To speed up field installations, build up and assemble the BALUSTRADE RAIL SECTIONS in a shop setting when possible. Follow up with easy installation between the supporting posts out on the job site. A) Using accurate field measurements (taken in Step 1) cut the matching TOP and BOTTOM RAILS to length for each respective section. B) Lay out and mark center lines on RAILS. Mark BALUSTER positions then drill holes to accept BALUSTERS. The diameter of the drilled holes will vary according to the BALUSTRADE size. Tip: A drill press with standard woodworking drill bits works well for drilling these holes. C) Apply a 1/4" bead of urethane base construction adhesive on each end of BALUSTER. Then insert BALUSTER into the drilled TOP and BOTTOM RAIL. D) Lay the RAIL ASSEMBLY on a flat surface. Use strap clamps as needed to draw RAIL ASSEMBLY together. Clamp tightly and allow the adhesive to set up. (This usually takes a minimum of 12 hours.) As the RAIL ASSEMBLY is drying, before it sets up, make sure it is square and that the BALUSTERS are square to the RAIL SECTION. Clean off any excess adhesive with a putty knife before the adhesive sets. Do not handle the newly assembled RAIL SECTIONS until the adhesive has cured completely. If painting is desired, a good time to paint the RAIL SECTIONS would be now, before field assembly begins. STEP 1 STEP 2C STEP 2D 3. INSTALL PORCH POSTS FOR PP6X96 ONLY A) The PORCH POST is a load bearing support post. It can be trimmed to various heights in the top or bottom flat post areas without affecting the integrity of the POST. However, the PORCH POST has a steel pipe molded into the center which must be cut with a hack saw or Sawzall reciprocating saw with metal cutting blades. STEP 3A STEP 3B B) Slide TRIM COLLARS along POST. C) Install the 2" wide x 1 1/2" x 2" angle brackets as shown in Fig. 3C. Drill 1/8" x 2 1/2" pilot hole for #14 x 2 1/2" stainless steel flat head screws. (Masonry fasteners not included.) Then slide TRIM COLLARS over the brackets. Secure with adhesive and trim nails. FOR PP8X96 ONLY A) Determine the required height of the PORCH POST by carefully measuring the distance from the floor to the bottom of the porch overhang or other structure being supported. STEP 3C B) Fypon PORCH POST are trimmed for height at the bottom. Transfer the measurement from Step One, above, marking all the way around the base of the POST. Carefully cut the polymer shell of the POST using a circular saw or hand saw, being careful to not cut into the steel reinforcement. Then cut through the steel reinforcement using a hack saw or power reciprocating saw with a steel cutting blade. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED ON FOLLOWING PAGE.

15 5", 6" and s (continued) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS C) After cutting through the steel tubing, pre-drill holes approximately 3/4" up from the bottom of the POST using a 13/64" drill bit. These holes should enter the side of the POST at a right angle and go through both the polymer shell and the steel reinforcement. Now use a 1/2" drill bit to expand the drill holes through the polymer only (do not drill through the steel reinforcement) using the 13/64" holes as pilot holes. These 1/2" holes will allow the screw head to go all the way to the steel reinforcement. Repeat this process at the top of the POST, pre-drilling holes approximately ¾ from the top and centered on the top side. D) Paint all exposed steel at both the top and bottom of the POST, using a quality, zinc base primer spray paint (Rust-Oleum, etc.) to help prevent corrosion. STEP 4A INSTALLATION GUIDE E) Determine the proper location for top and bottom column mounting plates. Be careful to mark these locations precisely, so that the top and bottom plates line up directly above and below each other. Identify the correct location of the top plate first, and use a plumb line dropped from the center point of the top plate location to accurately align the center point location for the bottom column mounting plate. F) Install the top and bottom column mounting plates using corrosion resistant mechanical fasteners. For anchoring into wooden floors, ceilings and other structures, stainless steel flat head screws are recommended. For installation into concrete, stone or other floor and ceiling materials, appropriate masonry and/or other fasteners must be used. G) Set the POST into place beneath the top anchor. Lift (jack) the upper structure just high enough to allow the POST to be set into place above the bottom anchor. H) Use the 13/64" holes drilled in Step 3 as guide holes to drill 13/64" holes through the column mounting plates. Firmly attach the POST to the top and bottom plates, driving the corrosion resistant screws provided all the way in so that their heads are flush against the steel tubing (four screws provided, two for the top plate and two for the bottom). I) Patch screw holes using a quality exterior grade, non-shrinking wood filler. Once the filler has dried, lightly sand any minor imperfections and paint the POST as desired using a quality exterior grade latex or oil base paint. 4. INSTALL NEWEL POSTS A) the steel BASE MOUNTING PLATE within layout lines marked out in Step 1. Mount them securely to floor surface (fasteners to mount to floor surface not provided). Install and tighten the two 3/8"-16 x 50" THREADED RODS into MOUNTING PLATE. B) The NEWEL POST may be trimmed to a desired height (measure and cut from the unrouted end of the POST). Add a centered saw kerf to the bottom of the newel post for water drainage. To install the POST align the POST over the THREADED RODS. Install the steel TOP MOUNTING PLATE over the THREADED RODS into the recessed cavity of the NEWEL POST TOP which is routed to accept the hardware. Install 3/8" flat and lock washers and tighten with 3/8" nuts to100 in./lbs. torque. C) TRIM COLLARS may be used on the bottom of the NEWEL POSTS to add a finishing touch. (SEE PARTS LISTS.) Slide the COLLARS over the top of the NEWEL POST into position before the NEWEL POST TOP is fastened in place. D) Finish NEWEL POST by attaching NEWEL POST TOP. Apply urethane base construction adhesive then nail or screw TOP into position. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED ON FOLLOWING PAGE.
